I am on CentOS 7. Magento offers a command line utility - bin/magento

created were owned by root.
I tried to become the apache user with command : su - apache which
returned "This account is currently not available."
If you look in /etc/passwd , you'll probably see that the shell for
the apache user is /sbin/nologin. This means that the apache user has
no shell, is not allowed to log in, and you can't use su to become
that user. A lot of the non-user users on Redhat-ish systems are set
up like that.
At this point I have to become root and do a chown apache -R
magento-directory.
If you're going to be changing the files in apache's DocumentRoot
frequently, then why not make it so that those files are owned by your
user instead of apache?
Because Magento will not be able to write files as it needs to such as
cache and php code it auto generates.
That'd make it a heck of a lot more
convenient. Changing the ownership of apache's config files is
potentially less useful because IIRC restarting apache requires you to
be root anyway.
