How can I update a Git clone that mirrors a CVS repo?

I need to make some changes to Eclipse BIRT. So I cloned the Git repository git://dev.eclipse.org/org.eclipse.birt/org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.git

But this clone doesn't contain the CVS tag BIRT_2_6_2_Release_201102151647

What is an efficient way to import all the missing CVS revisions into my clone of the Git repo at dev.eclipse.org?
