I have a non-default location for the data dir with mysql8, namely, as specified in my.cnf:

	datadir = /Users/me/Databases/mysql/data

What should the ownership of that directory, and its subdirectories and files, be? And with what permissions?

At the moment, for reasons I do not know, I have:

	ls -ld /Users/me/Databases/mysql/data
	drwxr-x--- 91 me  staff 2912 Jun 18 10:18 /Users/me/Databases/mysql/data

And:

[~] % ls -l /Users/me/Databases/mysql/data 
 total 709416 [partial listing]
