So my question: does git remember the time at which a branch was created, and how can it be listed? NOTE: Once I clone a repository that contains Branch1 (which will have its own commits as well as commits from the master branch), I create Branch2 in the clone to track Branch1. Branch1 will have commits before the cloning, and Branch2 will have its own commits after the cloning, but I want to list both. The way I am thinking of doing it is to list all commits for Branch2, and then limit the commits to only ones that were created after Branch1 was created. If anyone has suggestions on doing this alternatively, feel free to pitch in. Thank you.
