On my CentOS system, simply cloning date gives

$ git status
# On branch master
# Changes not staged for commit:
#   (use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed)
#   (use "git checkout -- <file>..." to discard changes in working directory)
#
#   modified:   test/tz_test/tzdata2015e.txt.zip
#   modified:   test/tz_test/tzdata2015f.txt.zip
#   modified:   test/tz_test/tzdata2016c.txt.zip
#   modified:   test/tz_test/tzdata2016d.txt.zip
#   modified:   test/tz_test/tzdata2016e.txt.zip
#   modified:   test/tz_test/tzdata2016f.txt.zip
#
no changes added to commit (use "git add" and/or "git commit -a")

This is because all files have git attribute set to "text".

This means we cannot use Date via ExternalProject. See https://github.com/SyneRBI/SIRF-SuperBuild/issues/864
