+# infer-owner
+
+Infer the owner of a path based on the owner of its nearest existing parent
+
+## USAGE
+
+```js
+const inferOwner = require('infer-owner')
+
+inferOwner('/some/cache/folder/file').then(owner => {
+  // owner is {uid, gid} that should be attached to
+  // the /some/cache/folder/file, based on ownership
+  // of /some/cache/folder, /some/cache, /some, or /,
+  // whichever is the first to exist
+})
+
+// same, but not async
+const owner = inferOwner.sync('/some/cache/folder/file')
+
+// results are cached!  to reset the cache (eg, to change
+// permissions for whatever reason), do this:
+inferOwner.clearCache()
+```
+
+This module endeavors to be as performant as possible.  Parallel requests
+for ownership of the same path will only stat the directories one time.
+
+## API
+
+* `inferOwner(path) -> Promise<{ uid, gid }>`
+
+    If the path exists, return its uid and gid.  If it does not, look to
+    its parent, then its grandparent, and so on.
+
+* `inferOwner(path) -> { uid, gid }`
+
+    Sync form of `inferOwner(path)`.
+
+* `inferOwner.clearCache()`
+
+    Delete all cached ownership information and in-flight tracking.
