The C-c C-a is in the VC-Log buffer, not in the ChangeLog buffer.
I.e. you first write your ChangeLog with C-x 4 a as usual and once
you're done, you do the C-x v v command to commit, which brings up
a VC-Log buffer into which you can hit C-c C-a to bring in a copy of the
ChangeLog entry you just typed.
You can also add log-edit-insert-changelog to log-edit-hook so it's done
for you automatically.
