Subversion 1.5 is released for quite a long time already and wouldn't
solve the above problem it's only got some better merge tracking.

cloning/checking out a subdirectory of the repository, it checks out the
entire directory tree. Instead Git promotes the use of multiple
repositories if you want different trees.
