Using git-svn, it is possible to have different parts of a git repo
correspond to a specific svn repo? From my understanding after reading
the documentation, you need one git repository per svn. My example is
that I'm trying to set up a git repo to version control everything
from my classes, but each class has a separate svn repo. Also, the
number of git repos I can create is limited, and I'd rather not
clutter everything up with many separate git-svn repos.
Example structure:
class/
.......... systems/
.......... algorithms/
.......... physics/
class is one central git repository, and systems, algorithms, and
physics contain data from three svn repositories. Ideally, you could
commit/update to/from each svn repo individually, or all at once.

You can have as many git svn configurations in a single git repo as you
want (see the "-R" argument to git svn). They will all correspond to
different remote branches. By checking out the branches (or a
corresponding tracking branch) you can switch between the branches, i.e.
between classes.
I don't think a layout as above is possible given your requirements that
- you (basically) want a single git repo and
- you want to be able to commit back.
They exclude using submodules resp. subtree merge.
