Decide what you want to keep and what you want to throw away. After
you get a good inventory you can work from there.

Look at the cvs2svn program. On my Debian system it is in its own
package. Here is the home page.
http://cvs2svn.tigris.org/
The cvs2svn program has many options that allow you to control what is
imported and what is not. You can also dump to an svn dump format and
then run the result through svn dump filters. I have had good result
using cvs2svn on a number of projects for a one time conversion. Give
that a try.
