Unfortunately, you cannot because Unix filesystems do not record a creation
time for files. The justification is that the creation time is a semantic
concept that exists at a higher level than the writing of some data to a
filesystem.
If you want to log creation times of files, I recommend using a
version-control system such as Subversion.
