cvs2svn [1] (in particular the cvs2git [2] and cvs2bzr [3] variants,
which are part of the same project) can convert from CVS to fast-import
format.  It is mature and actively maintained [4], has a lot of features
[5], help is available, and hopefully you agree that the documentation
[6,7] is well-written.
