DESCRIPTION

The gcloud components command group lets you control which tools are installed in the Google Cloud CLI. It can be used to install, update and remove components of the Google Cloud CLI, ensuring a lean, up-to-date installation.

gcloud components regularly checks whether updates are available for the tools you already have installed, and gives you the opportunity to upgrade to the latest version.
