Fair enough and a good observation.
Git stores such "metadata" like author name + email, authored timestamp,
committer name + email, commit timestamp, commit message etc in the Git
repository. File systems alone obviously can't handle such information.
You can obviously query the Git repository for that information and
because Git history is all local, it is very fast to retrieve - unlike
SubVersion, TeamCoherence, CVS etc. that must query a remote server over
TCP/IP.
