Subject: --dry-run for chmod and chown
Date: Thu, 19 Mar 2015 08:04:04 +0100

Hi folks,

a dry run mode for chmod and chown would be very helpful,
especially together with "-v --reference-file".

Hopefully I am not too blind to see. Most recent version 
I checked was coreutils 8.23. 


Thanx very much. Please keep on your good work

Harri
