Indeed, that's because vc tries to get the previous revision by issuing

  git rev-list -2 HEAD -- testnew.org

but testnew.org has no previous revision.  :-(

Maybe that could be fixed for the vc-annotate case because the previous
revision is most probably already in the "git blame" output which lead
to the current annotate buffer.  But that's of course an edge case which
doesn't really fit in the general vc architecture...
