RCS ,v files are compatible with CVS ,v files.  Simply treat the RCS
files as you would if they were CVS files and import them into git.

The easiest thing is to create a CVS repository and copy the ,v files
there so that they can be accessed through cvs commands.  Then import
them using git-cvsimport through local file access.

Here is a place to start with documentation.
