If "file stamp" means a cryptographically strong checksum of the contents of the file, then yes, that is retained in all versions of git. If "file stamp" means the time of the most recent commit, then yes, the time of the most recent commit is recorded in the commit log by all versions of git. If "file stamp" means the names of the files included in the most recent commit, then yes, that is recorded in the commit log by all versions of git. If "file stamp" means that files have their create date or modify date (or other date related attribute) set to the date of the most recent commit on checkout of that file, then no, that is not done in any version of git.
