I'm working on a web project with my father and one other developer. I need to have it so that our user id's, when creating files in the directory we share the source code in, create the files with the group id common to the three of us. How do I do this? I thought that it would be that I change the primary group membership from the group ID equal to our userid's to the shared group name (in this case www). However, this doesn't seem to be doing it. I've done this on the three of our user ids, but when I checked it (checking out files from subversion), all of the files were still owned by, in my case, UID=andy and GID=andy. How do I get this to stop working like this and create files with UID=andy GID=www? Andy
