How to have GNU's date in OS X? I do brew search date unsuccessfully. 
I have coreutils in my system. 
I could not find GNU date anywhere. 



How can you have GNU date in OS X?
The gdate binary from coreutils should be the gnu date program:

$ gdate --version
date (GNU coreutils) 8.25

If you don't have that in the path, perhaps brew rm coreutils &amp;&amp; brew install coreutils would be a place to start as well as inspecting your $PATH
