The date on revision 1.1 of src/editfns.c is 1991-06-29, commited by Jim
Blandy.
Judging from ChangeLog entries around that time, it _looks_ like
possibly the CVS repository was created by him when he was working on
first version of Emacs 19 -- there are many entries like "merge from
Emacs 18.59 ...", and references to version "19.0".
A quick query to Jim might get a more accurate reply, but it seems
roughly accurate to say it starts with version 19.
[My recollection is that RMS didn't use CVS for a very long time after
that though, so I suppose the CVS copy may not be authoritative for
older versions of 19.]
