The Google Cloud SDK installer will now prompt you to update an rc file to bring the Google Cloud CLIs into your environment. Enter a path to an rc file to update, or leave blank to use:

[/home/tom/.bashrc]:

Backing up [/home/tom/.bashrc] to [/home/tom/.bashrc.backup].

[/home/tom/.bashrc] has been updated.

==> Start a new shell for the changes to take effect.

More output

	Not setting default zone/region (this feature makes it easier to use
	[gcloud compute] by setting an appropriate default value for the
	--zone and --region flag).
	See https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/gcloud-compute section on how to set
	default compute region and zone manually. If you would like [gcloud init] to be
	able to do this for you the next time you run it, make sure the
	Compute Engine API is enabled for your project on the
	https://console.developers.google.com/apis page.

	Created a default .boto configuration file at [/home/tom/.boto]. See this file and
	[https://cloud.google.com/storage/docs/gsutil/commands/config] for more
	information about configuring Google Cloud Storage.
	Your Google Cloud SDK is configured and ready to use!

	* Commands that require authentication will use `your-user-name` by default
	* Commands will reference project `some-awesome-project` by default
	Run `gcloud help config` to learn how to change individual settings

	This gcloud configuration is called [default]. You can create additional configurations if you work with multiple accounts and/or projects.
	Run `gcloud topic configurations` to learn more.
	

Some things to try next:

  • Run gcloud --help to see the Cloud Platform services you can interact with. And run gcloud help COMMAND to get help on any gcloud command.
  • Run gcloud topic --help to learn about advanced features of the SDK like arg files and output formatting.
