Google Cloud SDK gcloud init
I have installed Google Cloud SDK and Git, but when I try to run gcloud init overseas-966
(my project name) I get this error message:
G:\>gcloud init overseas-966
WARNING: `gcloud init` will be changing soon. To clone git repo consider using `

This error occurs when gcloud tries to execute 'git' and it fails for whatever reason (not necessarily when git is not on the path).
Assuming you only need to clone the repo, you can achieve the same result by running
git clone https://source.developers.google.com/p/overseas-966/r/default --config credential.helper=gcloud.cmd
gcloud must be on your way for the above to work.
If the issue persists, please report the bug at https://code.google.com/p/google-cloud-sdk/issues/list with the conclusion gcloud info
(personal information removed).

I also faced this problem, but I already had my project setup.
Taken from Google Release Notes :
0.9.89 (2015/12/02)
gcloud Core
- Changed the behavior of the
gcloud init
git repository parameter . It now accepts the input path to the target directory for the repository rather than the parent directory of the repository target.
I think this is the change it refers to. You can update the Cloud SDK components by running gcloud components update
. Perhaps updating your components will help fix the situation.
