The problem I'm experiencing is that everytime a new branch is added,
git svn fetch seems to download the entire history all the way from r1.

AFAIK git-svn has to go back in order to search for possible earlier
history of $newbranch. For git-svn, the following two scenarios are
basically equivalent:
- a new branch is added to the svn repo
- you change your git-svn config so that a new branch becomes
"interesting" (which had been skipped before)
git-svn treats them the same way ("a branch we don't know about yet"),
because it can't really (reliably) distinguish between them.
Turns out that in their infinite wisdom, the repo gods laid out the
structure like this:
/trunk
/Source
[THECODE]
/SomethingElse
/SomeOtherStuff
/branches
/BRANCH-1
[THECODE]
/...
The problem was I had trunk set to /trunk and not /trunk/Source. This
was a bad mistake. Since I have fixed it git-svn is quite a bit faster!
