If it's just about providing the ancient code together with the
(imported) more recent history from SVN, you could create an extra
orphan branch for each zip packet, add the files, commit and
eventually tag.

If your question is more like "how do I tell git to find out where
this old code fits in my history and eventually place it there",
the answer is: you cannot do it. No VCS will do this and especially
not Git.
