Don't create a branch -- create a whole new set of modules, or even a
whole new repository to hold the new structure.
Don't get stuck on this idea of trying to keep track of everything back
to the beginning of time with one RCS file. That's simply not
necessary, and every attempt we've ever seen to date to do so has only
resulted in more confusion and problems than the instigators hoped to
avoid.
