In particular I want to follow the repository at:

The layout is like
/trunk
/stable

 |- 3.8

/releases
 |- 4.0
 |- 4.0r1
 |- 3.9
 |- 3.9r1
 |- 3.9r2


I do not know, whether git-svn can create branches automatically for
each directory under /stable and one main branch for trunk or whether I need to create one svn-remote definition for every svn directory I want
to track.

I'm not sure what commands git-svn uses, but it looks like the following command should work:

git svn clone --trunk=trunk --tags=releases --branches=stable http://pubsvn.ez.no/nextgen/ nextgen

That should create a nextgen git repository with a master branch following SVN stable, and automatically grabbing anything under stable or releases as a new branch. (I actually marked releases as a tag but I think git-svn treats them as branches, since they can change on the SVN side.)
