OK let's hack the date:

23:33 john@john:~/git/jekyll-netlify-cms(master)$ mv vendor/bundle/ruby/2.3.0/gems/jekyll-2.5.3/lib/site_template/_posts/0000-00-00-welcome-to-jekyll.markdown.erb vendor/bundle/ruby/2.3.0/gems/jekyll-2.5.3/lib/site_template/_posts/2017-01-01-welcome-to-jekyll.markdown.erb

Oh, the template expects to be parsed first. Why's that not happening?
