What chmod 2775 means
2775 (rwxrwsr-x) adds the setgid bit to a shared directory. Files and sub-directories created inside take the directory's
group instead of the creator's primary group, so the whole team keeps access without anyone running chgrp.
Adjust the checkboxes above to see how a different mode compares, or go back to the chmod calculator.
