Method: Net::SFTP::Protocol::V01::Attributes#gid

Defined in:
lib/net/sftp/protocol/01/attributes.rb

#gid ⇒ Object

Returns the group-id of the group that owns the file, or nil if that information is not available. If a :group key exists, but not a :gid key, the Etc module will be used to reverse lookup the id from the name. This might fail on some systems (e.g., Windows).
