This is the nature of a distributed version control system. The
timestamps cannot be used to establish a ordering of commits.

If you have reflogs enabled on the server (see man git-reflog) the
information there can help you find out when the pushes have been made.
There is no mechanism to transfer these reflogs into your local
repository, since reflogs are always local to a single repository. If
you have access to the server, you can examine the reflogs there. (f.e.
using git log -g or git reflog)
