Subject: Allow to change the group of a file using the Group ID
X-Git-Tag: version_2_0~4
X-Git-Url: https://git.p6c8.net/devedit.git/commitdiff_plain/02321769f658fbe95c046c17f0c5b4de759d282f?ds=sidebyside

Allow to change the group of a file using the Group ID
(Let's hope nobody will define a group composed only of numbers - let's hope it
isn't allowed at all - I should install Linux at home...)
