Not to my knowledge, no. It records who created a patch and when, but 
not when it was applied to any particular repo.

In that case you're presumably going to revert patches until the problem 
goes away. Maybe one patch broke something, maybe its an interaction of 
several patches. You turn patches on and off until you figure out what's up.
