specifying a chat space and user email addresses; remove chatmembers deletes members by
specifying chatmember names.

((user <UserItem>)|(members <UserTypeEntity>))+
gam <UserTypeEntity> remove chatmember members <ChatMemberList>

Added option pathdelimiter <Character> to the following commands that causes GAM to separate
components in a folder path with <Character> rather than the default character /.
This can help avoid confusion when Google folder names contain a /.
Previously, on Windows, path components were separated by \\ when written to a CSV file and
\ when written to stdout; now, / or <Character> will be used in all cases.
gam <UserTypeEntity> info drivefile <DriveFileEntity>

<String>1@<DomainName>
<String>2@<DomainName>
...

Fixed bug in csv_output_row_filter "FieldName:date<Operator>Never" that didn't properly detect matches.
For example, the following command would not display users that had never logged in.
gam config csv_output_row_filter "lastLoginTime:date=Never" print users lastlogintime
6.59.07
Added option immutableous <OrgUnitEntity> to gam <UserTypeEntity> update user ... org <OrgUnitPath> that
does not update the user's OU to <OrgUnitPath> if <OrgUnitPath> appears in <OrgUnitEntity>. All other
fields are updated.
This can be used when a SIS outputs user data to be updated but students temporarily in special purpose
OUs should not be updated to the SIS specified OU. <OrgUnitEntity> and <OrgUnitPath> must both
specify OU paths, not IDs.
gam csv SISdata.csv gam update user "~primaryEmail" suspended off firstname "~First Name" lastname "~Last Name"
ou "~OU" immutableous "'/Students/Lower School/Restricted,'/Students/Middle School/Restricted'"

<PeopleProfileSourceNameList> ::= "<PeopleProfileSourceName>(,<PeopleProfileSourceName>)*"

file permissions will be removed/created as specified by the following noptions:
excludepermissionsfromdomains <DomainNameList>
includepermissionsfromdomains <DomainNameList>
mappermissionsdomain <DomainName> <DomainName>
Additionally, permissions referencing deleted groups/users will be removed.
The permissions are updated on the file before it is moved.
Test before using in production.
6.59.05
Added option includepermissionsfromdomains <DomainNameList> to the following commands
that copies only those permissions that reference any domain in <DomainNameList>.
It is mutually exclusive with exludepermissionsfromdomains <DomainNameList>.
gam copy|sync teamdriveacls <SharedDriveEntity>
gam <UserTypeEntity> copy|sync teamdriveacls <SharedDriveEntity>
gam <UserTypeEntity> copy|move drivefile <DriveFileEntity>
6.59.04
