Special:Version shows the git hash and timestamp for all the extensions, but the installed skins does not have a timestamp, except for CologneBlue and Modern there should be a git hash. Vector and Monobook can not have one, because there are part of core. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Version#mw-version-skin
Works for me locally. Must be a WMF misconfiguration or something.
Perhaps this has something to do with the precomputing of this information in WMF environment? https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/130498/ But I have no idea where the code that does the precomputing is located.
Nevermind, found it, and it indeed only handles the extensions/ directory and not skins/. https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/130560/
Change 153127 had a related patch set uploaded by Bartosz Dziewoński: Precompute data for GitInfo for skins, too https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/153127
The patch does not help here (or it is not the last action to do)
I'm pretty sure that it does. We'll only know for sure if somebody decides to actually review and maybe deploy it.
