It is interesting information for some people though. For instance someone wondering how long ago Linus published a certain security fix. To be able to say to easily query gitweb and be able to report, "Linus published that security fix X day ago etc.." Of course, I agree with you that also knowing the revision number such a commit appeared in is at least if not more important. But still I don't dismiss this date/time based question as completely as you do. The very fact that a gitweb user has brought this issue forward (and this isn't the first time) suggests the information is at least of casual interest to some people.
