CVS uses the Attic to track deleted files. When I used cvs2git (version 2.3) it migrated all those deleted files and put their contents in the new git repo. Of course because the files were deleted, they don't appear in a cloned working copy. Do this to view the log of commits for a deleted file in your working copy cloned from the newly created git repo, which will help you get the file back if you need it:
Hopefully your Attics are in good shape, but if not this SO post discusses corrupt CVS issues - when a file is present and also in the Attic, a situation that should never happen:
