* NEWS: "chown : file", "chown '' file", and "chgrp '' file" now
succeed without changing the uid and gid, like FreeBSD.
* src/chgrp.c (parse_group): Return gid_t rather than storing it
through a pointer. Treat "chgrp '' file" as a no-op change,
as FreeBSD does.
(main): Set chopt.group_name to NULL if the group is the empty
string.
* src/chown-core.c (describe_change): Describe changes to -1:-1
without using "to OWNERSHIP" phrase.
* src/chown.c (usage): "chown '' file" is now allowed.
(main): Do not set user name to the empty string if the group
name is null.
* tests/chgrp/basic: Test "chgrp '' file".
* tests/chown/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add separator.
* tests/chown/separator: New file, partly taken from
Dmitry V. Levin's suggestion in
