The 'svnsync init' command takes two URLs:  the destination repository
and the source repository.

The error you're getting is because the source repository URL
(file:///) isn't a repository... you're pointing it to a .tgz file.
You need to point it to a repository instead.  The easiest thing to do
would be to just supply the URL to your old OpenSVN repository... no
need to download anything!
