test -G
is a bash/ksh/dash/ash extension to check whether the file is owned by your effective group.
To ensure compatibility with other shells, you can use find -group "$(id -g)"
.
If you expect your shell to support test -G
, specify this explicitly in the shebang (or with # shellcheck shell=dash
directive).
