Description

Any solution? gsutil totally unaware of env var GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS
Maybe something like gsutil --credentials-file=/path/to/gcs-core-buckets-key.json
I don't need any bloatware from gcloud package.
Just make it work, God bless.

Research direction

Start by reviewing standalone gsutil's credential handling and how it discovers GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS. The issue does not name files or tests; done would mean gsutil can use that environment variable for authentication without requiring the gcloud package.
