Some repositories started with the trunk in "/" and then moved it to the
standard "trunk/" location.

On these repositories, the correct thing would be to call
git-svnimport -T "",
I would not call that the best solution: it makes the bad decision
from the past impact useful work in the future.  I very much like git
having a good toplevel directory structure.
Besides the example of a mutating trunk directory, I have repositories
where there is only trunk (in "/" directory) and it never changes. Without
this patch, I can't even import that kind of repositories.
[...]
The patch is for git-svnimport, not git-svn
Oops.  In that case, I have no qualified opinion.
