git ls-files with date?

Question

On GitHub you have this nice feature on each folder page, it lists the file name along with the age of the last commit to that file. This is similar to the ls -l command.

Is there a way to mimic this behavior from the command line? Something like

git ls-files -l

Based on sjas answer this works for me

ls | while read aa
do
  git log -1 --format="%ai  $aa" "$aa"
done

$ for a in $(ls); do git log --pretty=format:"%h%x09%an%x09%ad%x09$a" -1 -- "$a"; done

In case this looks strange:
My SHA1's are abbreviated to only 4 numbers via core.abbrev=4 in my .gitconfig.

But maybe you have use for this here:

$ for a in $(ls); do git log --pretty=format:"%h%x09$a%x09%s" -1 -- "$a"; done

@sjas, I'm pretty sure a copy-paste of the screen text is much simpler than a screenshot/crop/upload! — Shahbaz, Jul 25 '12 at 12:59
Indenting each line four spaces? SO has a shortcut for it, the `{ }` code button in the editor. — vergenzt, Jul 25 '12 at 15:59
Perhaps `for a in $(git ls-files .); do git log --pretty=format:"%h%x09%an%x09%ad%x09$a" -1 -- "$a"; done` instead? — Chris Stryczynski, Jul 20 '18 at 09:14
