You convert into one git repository, svn2git can't help.

If you create multiple repositories with svn2git - instead of
splitting afterwards - you
can use recurse on kdebindings (not on ruby itself).
But recurse won't be needed for this particular move anyway - you need it
eg. when the whole KDE was tagged.

I think mutiple repositories make the conversion much easier.
