Are you sure you understand what @{date} does? It shows you the state
_this_ repository was in at that date.
There is _no way_ to get this information from somewhere else than the
reflogs.
It is a common misconception that you can reference anything by date in a
distributed setup. (Before you ask, I will just mention "clock skew" and
"parallel branches" to give you an idea why this is a misconception.)
Ciao,
