If I'm understanding the question, you've got one large repo that contains a number of projects. You would like to break each of those projects out into individual repos without losing history. Bottom line is yes, you have to redo your repository layout and create new git repositories for each project. You don't need to lose history, though.

1. Make a copy of your current repo, one copy for each sub project.
2. In each of the new repos, delete all other projects except for the one associated with that repo.

You'll still have all the history prior to breaking the original repo up, but now each project is it's own repository.

If you don't mind losing your history, making each project into it's own git repo is as simple as running git init in the project directory. This will create a new repo for just that project.
