In the traces you have provided we see the following:

$ ci -i -u0.1 -t-1'
'.'
' myfile; tramp_old_status=$?

And the *tramp/ssh ...* buffer shows:

RCS/myfile,v  <--  myfile
initial revision: 0.1
enter log message, terminated with single '.' or end of file:
>>

Your shell on the remote host didn't accept this kind of "ci",
especially the -t option which goes over several lines. That's why ci
went to an interactive mode, and waited for addditional strings from
Tramp.

You shall give just one line as description, without the following "."
in the next line.

Best regards, Michael.
