What chmod 775 means
775 (rwxrwxr-x) is for directories a team shares: everyone in the group can create and delete files, while other users can only browse.
Pair it with the setgid bit (2775) so new files automatically belong to the team's group.
Adjust the checkboxes above to see how a different mode compares, or go back to the chmod calculator.
