Installing using Homebrew

Google Cloud CLI can also be installed using Homebrew, a widely-used package manager for macOS, with the community-maintained gcloud-cli cask.

If you don't have Homebrew already, you'll need to install Homebrew first.

To install gcloud CLI using Homebrew, run:

    brew update && brew install --cask gcloud-cli

To update gcloud CLI, use the gcloud component manager:
```
    gcloud components update
```
To uninstall gcloud CLI, run:
```
    brew uninstall --cask gcloud-cli
```
