How is it possible to get real file's change time after updating from SVN?

I have changed a CSS file, then committed it. Then updated it on another server. But the time of the updated file is time of the SVN update.

Is it possible to get the "Real" time - the one when the file change was saved on the first server?

Output of stat:

stat myfile.css 
  File: `myfile.css'
  Size: 29731       Blocks: 64         IO Block: 4096   regular file
Device: fe11h/65041d    Inode: 4411064     Links: 1
Access: (0660/-rw-rw----)  Uid: ( 1118/ valk)   Gid: ( 1010/developers)
Access: 2012-02-19 18:04:50.000000000 +0200
Modify: 2012-02-19 18:04:50.000000000 +0200
Change: 2012-02-19 18:04:50.000000000 +0200

Thanks

You can also configure Subversion to use commit-times by editing the Subversions config file located at ~/.subversion/config (UNIX, Linux) respectively %APPDATA%\subversion(Windows)

There are these lines (around line 100 in unmodified file):

### Set use-commit-times to make checkout/update/switch/revert
### put last-committed timestamps on every file touched.
# use-commit-times = yes

Just remove the "#" from the last displayed line.

Note this setting is active for all your workingcopies on this machine

Use svn info. It will give you something like:

Path: /XXXXX/myfile.css
Name: myfile.css
URL: svn+ssh://XXXXX/current/myfile.css
