Functions

func SetupProcessGroup

func SetupProcessGroup(cmd *exec.Cmd)

SetupProcessGroup runs the command's shell in its own process group and makes timeout/cancel kill the whole group, so a grandchild the shell spawned (e.g. a `sleep`) is torn down instead of surviving as an orphan.

cmd must have been created by exec.CommandContext (Cancel requires it) and must not have started yet.
