Title: Add an option to use git metadata as resource for the "date" metadata.

I added two new option for the DEFAULT_DATE setting: git-last-modified and git-creation. A call to "git log" is used to get commit metadata for specific files. Then, either the timestamp of the commit with the last file modification or the timestamp of the commit where the file was first created is used.

Also updated the documentation with a short description of the new options.
