I have managed to swap between projects using
gcloud config set project <project id>
But can't seem to leave anything
When you use the gcloud
command the terminal keeps the same properties, if any it could change the shell you're using, in that case to return back to your previous shell you can just type exit
which normally would take you out of the last shell.
Here are some detailed instructions to go back the old shell or prompt depending on what changed on your side:
Determine the shell you're using before starting the gcloud
command by typing echo $SHELL
, this will provide the name of the shell which could be something like /bin/bash
for bash or /bin/zsh
for zshell.
Once that you have finished using gcloud
, type $SHELL
again and determine if the shell you're using now changed. If it did changed, normally with an exit
command you would leave the old shell, if it doesn't work you can type the whole route of the binary and you will switch to it, for example type /bin/zsh
to go back to zsh
If the prompt also changed, you can go back to the default one by executing . ./.profile
, source ~/.zshrc
for zsh
or source ~/.bashrc
for bash
If the prompt is changed since the beginning (before executing the gcloud
command) then you probably have to edit your .profile
or .zshrc
files to set them as you like to have them, more information about it, can be found here
