chgrp: Change the owner group of a file/directory.
$ chgrp ${group} ${filename_or_directory}
try on your machine
The command "chgrp" is used to change the group ownership of a file or directory in Unix-like operating systems.
In the given command, ${group} and ${filename_or_directory} are placeholders for the actual group and the file or directory name you want to modify. You need to replace these placeholders with the appropriate values.
For example, if you want to change the group ownership of a file named "myfile.txt" to a group called "staff", the command would be:
chgrp staff myfile.txt
This command will change the group ownership of "myfile.txt" to "staff". Please note that you need to have appropriate permissions to change the group ownership of a file or directory.

never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
