# Git Privacy
This document references all Git timestamps that pose a privacy concern.
## Commit Object Timestamps
[Git commit objects](https://git-scm.com/docs/user-manual.html#commit-object) always have at least 2 timestamps:
* `GIT_AUTHOR_DATE` is the timestamp used for the "author" field.
* `GIT_COMMITTER_DATE` is the timestamp used for the "committer" field.
## Annotated Tag Object Timestamps
[Annotated Git tag objects](https://git-scm.com/docs/user-manual.html#tag-object) always have at least 1 timestamp:
* `GIT_COMMITTER_DATE` is the timestamp used for the "committer" field.
## GnuPG Signature Timestamps
[GnuPG signatures](https://www.gnupg.org/gph/en/manual/x135.html) on signed commits and signed annotated tags include a timestamp.
## Git Forges
Some Git forges log and/or publicly reveal when commits are pushed.
**TODO**: Investigate and document each forge's Git push logging.
