Ok, I know you are not emacs user, so if you have to go to some line in the middle of buffer, how do you go there quickly? I though if I knew line number, I would use move to line funct to go there.

NAME
rcs-checkin - check files into RCS SYNOPSIS
rcs-checkin [FILE...] DESCRIPTION
rcs-checkin is a helper script for checking files into RCS. This program is distributed with GNU Emacs. This program converts files with an old Emacs-style version history for use with the Emacs 19 version control interface VC, which likes to use RCS as its back end. For each file to be processed, the script looks for Emacs version files related to it. These files are checked in as deltas, oldest first, so that the contents of the file itself becomes the latest revision in the master. The first line of each file is used as its description. The file itself is not deleted, as under VC with vc-keep-workfiles at its default of t, but all the version files are. If an argument file is already version-controlled under RCS, any version files are added to the list of deltas and deleted, and then the workfile is checked in again as the latest version. This is probably not quite what was wanted, and is the main reason VC doesn't simply call this to do checkins. In order to make it easier to use rcs-checkin *, files which are detectably either RCS masters (with names ending in ,v) or Emacs version files (with names containing ~) are ignored. OPTIONS
The program accepts no options. SEE ALSO
The Emacs version control interface is documented in the GNU Emacs manual, which you can read using Info, either from Emacs or as a standalone program. AUTHORS
rcs-checkin was originally written by Paul Eggert. It was revised for use with GNU Emacs VC by Eric S. Raymond. COPYING
