frankly, I don't recall the details (or where I copied them from ;-)),
but have you tried following the procedure exactly as in
import_external_plugin.sh? It uses first --tree-filter (with
--prune-empty), then --subdirectory-filter after that.

Notes:
- Make sure you start from a clean repo (best a fresh clone / init).
- You must specify both the source path and the target path, or the
  script will mess up. E.g.

  git init anova_only
  cp -a xy/rkward/scripts/import_external_plugins.sh anova_only/scripts
  cd anova_only
  scripts/import_external_plugins.sh rk.ANOVA rk.ANOVA
