install: Copy files to the destination, setting their ownership.

install

$ install --owner ${user} ${path-to-source_file1 path-to-source_file2 ---} ${path-to-destination}

try on your machine

This command is used to install files from the source to a specified destination folder. Here is a breakdown of the command components:

install: It is the command for installing files or directories.
--owner ${user}: This option sets the owner of the installed files or directories to ${user}. You need to replace ${user} with the desired username.
${path-to-source_file1 path-to-source_file2 ---}: These are placeholders for the source file or files that will be installed. You can specify multiple files by separating their paths with spaces.
${path-to-destination}: This is the destination where the files will be installed. You need to replace ${path-to-destination} with an actual directory path.

To use this command, you need to replace the placeholders with actual values. For example:

install --owner john file1.txt file2.txt /path/to/destination/

In the above example, the files file1.txt and file2.txt will be installed into the /path/to/destination/ directory, and the owner of the installed files will be set to the user john.
