You can use the graph walker to do this. See Repository.get_walker().

http://www.samba.org/~jelmer/dulwich/apidocs/dulwich.repo.BaseRepo.html#get_walker

Note that this will scan the history (just like "git log -n1" will) because
git does not explicitly store information about in what revision a file was
last changed.

Cheers,
