How to view author-date in Github.com-CodePudding

In Git there are 2 types of dates, author-date and commit-date.

While git log shows the author date by default and similarly GitHub desktop appears to show the author-date by default, however GitHub.com shows the commit-date by default.

However so far I was unable to find how to view the author-date for the commit on the GitHub.com website, (while in this answer it is described how to view it in the GitHub API I didn't find anything on how to view it on the website itself).

Is there any way to view the author-date either on the general commit log page or at the individual commit level?

Thanks.

Since the author-date is part of the patch format, you can get it from appending .patch while viewing a commit on the GitHub website:

https://github.com/<owner>/<repo>/commit/<commit-sha>.patch

The Date field in the output is what you are searching for:
