In order to clone the TVN application from sourceforge to github I performed the following steps.
rsync -av rsync://tnv.cvs.sourceforge.net/cvsroot/tnv/* .
svn export --username=guest http://cvs2svn.tigris.org/svn/cvs2svn/trunk cvs2svn-trunk
cp ./cvs2svn-trunk/cvs2git-example.options ./cvs2git.options
vim cvs2git.options
cvs2svn-trunk/cvs2git --options=cvs2git.options --fallback-encoding utf-8
