How do you copy files from your laptop/desktop to Google Cloud shell home directory of the user?
Going further using cloud shell how can you upload files directly to Google Cloud storage buckets?

I found the answers myself
1. Copy files from local to cloud shell
gcloud alpha cloud-shell scp cloudshell:'FILE_NAME' localhost:.'FILE_NAME'
gcloud alpha cloud-shell scp cloudshell:~/FOLDER/'FILE_NAME' localhost:.'FILE_NAME'
2. To copy a remote directory ‘~/REMOTE-DIR’ on the instance of ‘example-instance’ to ‘~/LOCAL-DIR’ on the local host, run:
gcloud compute scp example-instance:~/REMOTE-DIR ~/LOCAL-DIR --zone=us-central1-a
3. To copy files from your local host to a virtual machine, run:
gcloud compute scp ~/LOCAL-FILE-1 ~/LOCAL-FILE-2 example-instance:~/REMOTE-DIR --zone=us-central1-a
