<https://sourceforge.net/p/upgrade/> just gives an error message about
not being an admin of "this" project.

Looking around to try to find documentation on what changes, I find:

  https://sourceforge.net/p/forge/site-support/537/

where SF's support point out that CVS URLs will *not* change:

CVS is actually a special case. We don't support it for new projects on
the new system, only for classic projects that upgrade. So that said,
the repository itself isn't actually migrated, it's just left in place
and we add an informational page similar to what's on classic projects.
So, in short, yes, for CVS (and only CVS), the links will remain the
same.

So, looks like no manual fixups of client checkouts needed.
