gsutil rsync exits after starting synchronization

I'm trying to sync folders from Google compute engine instance to cloud storage, but it just exits without any pointers whatsoever. It says Starting synchronization and then goes back to the prompt.

gsutil -m rsync -r public/ gs://mybucket/public
Building synchronization state...
Starting synchronization

My gsutil version

gsutil version -l
gsutil version: 4.6
checksum: 397d8391fddbf1c48cc31f9c2911be68 (!= 70858e3360112a908c76273e6c947098)
boto version: 2.30.0
python version: 2.7.6 (default, Jun 22 2015, 17:58:13) [GCC 4.8.2]
OS: Linux 3.16.0-62-generic
multiprocessing available: True
using cloud sdk: True
config path: /etc/boto.cfg
gsutil path: /usr/lib/google-cloud-sdk/platform/gsutil/gsutil
compiled crcmod: False
installed via package manager: False
editable install: False

I also tried updating gsutil and gcloud components respectively, but that doesn't work either

gcloud components update
You cannot perform this action because the component manager has been 
disabled for this installation.  If you would like get the latest 
version of the Google Cloud SDK, please see our main download page at:

  https://developers.google.com/cloud/sdk/

ERROR: (gcloud.components.update) The component manager is disabled for this installation

Any ideas what I might be missing here?

When gsutil rsync outputs nothing more than "Starting synchronization" (with no "Copying" output), that means it found nothing needing synchronization between the source and destination you specified.
