If provided, all metadata entries are removed.

To unset the property, run:
$ gcloud config unset compute/zone
Alternatively, the zone can be stored in the environment variable CLOUDSDK_COMPUTE_ZONE.
GLOBAL FLAGS

--help
Display detailed help.
--project PROJECT_ID
The Google Cloud Platform project name to use for this invocation. If omitted then the current project is assumed.
