Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org mailing list.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

- C-x v d to open a dired buffer for a directory containing changed
  files (CVS-controlled in my case)
- v = -> works fine, shows diff
- v v -> errors out with (wrong-type-argument stringp nil)

The error seems to be that vc-parent-buffer is nil, which makes sense
since vc-start-entry uses get-file-buffer to set it, and when in dired
mode there is no live buffer for the file yet.
