For a particular file, just do `C-x v l' to get the history of that file. Also, as has been suggested: do `C-x v g' do do annotate, and then do `l' on a particular line in the annotated file to see the log message for the last change to that line, or `d' to see the diff of that change. >From vc-dir, I think the command was `l'. >From magit the command is `l l'. >From the list of changes in either, you can quickly get the diff and the log message, and the list of files changed with that file.
