A Grunt plugin that allows you to change the owner of a file.

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.2

npm install grunt-chown --save-dev

Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-chown');

    },
    target: {
