Documentation

Show in another window the VC change history of the whole tree.

With a C-u (universal-argument) prefix argument, prompt for a branch or revision to log instead of the working revision, and a number specifying the maximum number of revisions to show; the default is vc-log-show-limit. You can also use a numeric prefix argument to specify this.

This is like vc-print-root-log but with an alternative prefix argument that some users might prefer for interactive usage.

Probably introduced at or before Emacs version 31.1.
