You need to commit the markdown file to see the updated time.
VitePress displays the "last updated" time using the timestamp of the most recent Git commit for each file. To enable this, the Markdown file must be committed to Git.
Internally, VitePress runs `git log -1 --pretty="%ai"` on each file to retrieve its timestamp. If all pages show the same update time, it's likely due to shallow cloning (common in CI environments), which limits Git history.
To fix this in **GitHub Actions**, use the following in your workflow:
```yaml{4}
- name: Checkout
uses: actions/checkout@v4
with:
fetch-depth: 0
```
Other CI/CD platforms have similar settings.
If such options aren't available, you can prepend the `docs:build` command in your `package.json` with a manual fetch:
