I came across this, and it seems to mostly work:
http://john.albin.net/git/git-svn-migrate

Except it fails to do the "--preserve-empty-dirs". It does say that it
passes any options it doesn't recognize directly to git-svn, so I gave it
that, but just got:

- Cloning repository...
Unknown option: preserve-empty-dirs

Now, I realize this isn't a forum for that particular "git-svn-migrate"
tool, and I don't expect anyone to go digging though it on my account, so
I'm willing to try to add it into the script if I can just find out the
proper way to use "--preserve-empty-dirs".

However, I suspect that script may not be my problem at all: If I do this:

git svn help | grep preserve

I get absolutely nothing. There doesn't seem to be a
"--preserve-empty-dirs".
