which can be either a group name or a numeric group ID.
OPTIONS
- -c, --changes
-
Verbosely describe only files whose ownership actually changes.
- -f, --silent, --quiet
-
Do not print error messages about files whose ownership cannot be
changed.
- -v, --verbose
-
Verbosely describe ownership changes.
- -R, --recursive

The long-named options can be introduced with `+' as well as `--',
for compatibility with previous releases. Eventually support for `+'
will be removed, because it is incompatible with the POSIX.2 standard.
