I only did it once (both cvs -> svn and a new svn repository from scratch).
I can't say I'm used to svn administration (using it is just the same as
cvs for simple stuff).
However, I can try it at home, make a script, and then do it again on the
alioth svn repository.

At least the non-quick (an equivalent to the Cederqvist):
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.1/
(It's not quick, but you should find anything in it)

and a FAQ:
