   <code class="command">ALTER GROUP</code> changes the attributes of a user group.
   This is an obsolete command, though still accepted for backwards
   compatibility, because groups (and users too) have been superseded by the
   more general concept of roles.
  </p><p>
   The first two variants add users to a group or remove them from a group.
   (Any role can play the part of either a <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">user</span>”</span> or a
   <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">group</span>”</span> for this purpose.)  These variants are effectively
   equivalent to granting or revoking membership in the role named as the
   <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">group</span>”</span>; so the preferred way to do this is to use
   <a class="xref" href="sql-grant.html" title="GRANT"><span class="refentrytitle">GRANT</span></a> or
   <a class="xref" href="sql-revoke.html" title="REVOKE"><span class="refentrytitle">REVOKE</span></a>.
  </p><p>
   The third variant changes the name of the group.  This is exactly
   equivalent to renaming the role with
   <a class="xref" href="sql-alterrole.html" title="ALTER ROLE"><span class="refentrytitle">ALTER ROLE</span></a>.
  </p></div><div class="refsect1" id="id-1.9.3.15.6"><h2>Parameters</h2><div class="variablelist"><dl class="variablelist"><dt><span class="term"><em class="replaceable"><code>group_name</code></em></span></dt><dd><p>
      The name of the group (role) to modify.
     </p></dd><dt><span class="term"><em class="replaceable"><code>user_name</code></em></span></dt><dd><p>
      Users (roles) that are to be added to or removed from the group.
      The users must already exist; <code class="command">ALTER GROUP</code> does not
      create or drop users.
     </p></dd><dt><span class="term"><em class="replaceable"><code>new_name</code></em></span></dt><dd><p>
      The new name of the group.
     </p></dd></dl></div></div><div class="refsect1" id="id-1.9.3.15.7"><h2>Examples</h2><p>
   Add users to a group:

</p><pre class="programlisting">
ALTER GROUP staff ADD USER karl, john;
</pre><p>

   Remove a user from a group:

</p><pre class="programlisting">
ALTER GROUP workers DROP USER beth;
