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!
