Subject: How to generate feature branch statistics?

I assume that feature branches are not frequently enough merged into
master. Because of that we discover bugs later than we could with a more
continuous code integration. I don't want to discuss here whether feature
branches are good or bad.

I want just to ask is there a way how to generate a statistic for the
average duration of feature branches until they are merged to the master? I
would like to know if it is 1 day, 2 days or lets say 8 or 17 days. Also it
would be interesting to see the statistical outliers.

I hope my motivation became clear and what kind of git repository data I
would like to produce.

Any ideas?
