For version control, I recommend vc-dired instead of dired. Type C-x
v d.

Then, it should be sufficient to say `v v', after marking the files.
But why don't you use PCL-CVS? You mention it in the subject line of
your posting. Type M-x cvs-update RET /path/to/working/directory
RET. The command `C' will commit the file/directory under point,
even recursively, so it is sufficient to hit `C' on the top-level
directory in the *cvs* buffer. It also snarfs ChangeLog entries for
use as commit messages (unlike `c' which doesn't do that).
