Hi,
AFAIK RCS is not the right tool is you want to develop a multi files
project.

SVN work very well inside emacs.

But

If you really don't want to use SVN look at mercurial, git or bzr.
You have tools like tailor or hg convert to convert your SVN repository.
You can also work with really good tools like hg qpatch if you use mercurial.
When your work is finish you can convert your work to SVN and commit
your changes to the central repo.

But with RCS i think it will be impossible.
