I am trying to determine who installed GIT and when GIT was
installed and what repository it came from. The date stamp on
/usr/share/git-core says Oct 31 16:55.  The server did not exist
until early November.

/root/install.log should contain the packages installed from the
normal installer or the kickstart installer.  Things installed
after that would be recorded in /var/log/yum.log .  However,
this'll only tell you when the RPM was installed, not which
non-root user was responsible or which repository it came from.
You could try "rpm -q -f /usr/share/git-core/templates/description
--qf %{NAME}%{INSTALLTIME}%{VENDOR}" and convert the timestamp
from seconds-since-epoch to a regular time as well.

If the log files and RPM database don't contain anything about a
git RPM, then whoever installed it might've done "./configure
--prefix=/usr && make && su -c 'make install' ".  At that point,
you go trawling through users' .bash_history files....


Might be in /var/log/yum.log, and if you archive your
/var/log/messages and /var/log/secure files, it might be in there, as
well (assuming someone used su to install).

I was able to determine the package was installed before i recieved the server.

Thank you for your help!!
