I'm quite new to git and I'm trying to move a svn repository to git. I followed the guide below so now I have a git repo on my server

So, if I do "git branch" git replies "* master" and if I do "git branch -r" i get a list of all the branches in the svn repository.
My last svn-checkins have been in one of the branches, but when I did the "git svn clone"-stuff my commits in that branch (they have not been merged into the trunk yet) are visible in my (git) master branch. What am I missing here?
Also, if I on my development machine do "git clone " I get the files alright. But if I do "git branch -r" I can only see the master branch and not the remote branches".
Since we're getting rid of the svn-repo all together I would like to have all the svn branches in the git-repo so that they can be accessed from the developer clients.
Again, I'm not a total git newbie but not far from it. So if there is something fundamental I'm missing here please tell me.
Update
After doing some RTFM (man git-svn) I solved the first problem with branch stuff present in the master branch
reset --hard remotes/trunk
Now the trunk and the master branch are the same. Now, next is to figure out how to get the branches from the development clients.
Update 2
I got it working by combining the url above and the url that Scott pointed to. So, from the beginning.

server> cd /usr/local/git-repos
server> mkdir my_project.git
server> cd my_project.git
server> git init
Then i cloned the svn-repository to my dev-machine (note, th
