Neither of the two dates that git does record correspond to that (neither of those dates seems especially useful to me). I've seen it suggested that enabling the reflog on the server (and disabling expiry), plus a post-receive hook to add the information to a note, will do it. E.g.: http://mnaoumov.wordpress.com/2013/01/31/git-get-push-date/ Is it worth implementing that, or should I give up my quaint, naive desire to know "when did X happen"?
