chgrp -- change group ownership of files.
chgrp [-R [-H | -L | -P]] group file [files ...]
chgrp sets the group ownership of files. The first argument after the options is the new group.
chgrp accepts the options described below. The options -L, -H and -P are mutally exclusive, and only the last given option will be honoured. All of -L, -H and -P require the -R option to be set first.
The working of chgrp is not influenced by any environment variables.
chgrp can loop forever when symbolic links create cycles.
chgrp uses File::Find
to recurse.
