Here's what I've done.

First I created an empty SVN repo (for the same root as the git):

svn checkout --depth empty http://path/to/repo .

This created empty svn repo in the git root. The point is that is contains the SVN externals properties.

Next I simply check only the externals (I placed in PATH cygwin tools):

svn propget svn:externals | sed -e 's/ / .\//' | sed -e 's/\'//g' | xargs -L1 svn co
