Method: users.patch

Updates a user using patch semantics. The update method should be used instead, because it also supports patch semantics and has better performance. If you're mapping an external identity to a Google identity, use the update method instead of the patch method.

This method is unable to clear fields that contain repeated objects ( addresses , phones , etc). Use the update method instead.
