You mean, "C-x C-f", I presume?

So the problem seems to be that the doc strings don't say the command
should be invoked from a *vc-log* buffer, is that right?  The user
manual explains that, so next time when the doc string is not enough,
may I suggest to try looking up the command/variable in the manual?

Please don't mock people when they ask clarifying questions about your
bug reports.  It probably means there's some misunderstanding or lack
of information, and clearing that would help use fix the problems you
report.

Thanks.
