GFCHOWN(1)

💅 GFCHOWN(1) — the Gfarm manual, bestie edition ✨

okay so like, welcome to the Gfarm manual page for gfchown 🌸 this one lives in section 1 of the Gfarm man pages, and it's here to help you hand over ownership of your files like the main character you are 👑

🎀 NAME 🎀

gfchown — change Gfarm file owner and group 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

gfchown [options] owner[:group] [path...]

gfchown [options] :group [path...]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

gfchown changes an owner and a group of Gfarm files. that's it, that's the whole vibe 💖 you say who should own it, you point at the files, and it just… does it. slay.

🌈 OPTIONS 🌈

• -h — affects symbolic links instead of referenced files/directories 🔗 like, it touches the link itself, not the thing the link is pointing at. very demure, very mindful.
• -R — changes owner/group recursively 🌀 every file and directory down the tree, all of it, no crumbs left behind.
• -? — displays a list of command options 👀 your little help menu moment, iconic.

no cap: -h is about symbolic links vs the referenced files/directories — those are two different things and the flag decides which one gets the new owner. don't mix them up bestie 😭
