> Project: Sqoop
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.4.2
> Reporter: Jarek Jarcec Cecho
> Assignee: Raghav Kumar Gautam

> Fix For: 1.4.4

>
> Sqoop will fail if target directory already exists on HDFS. This can for
> example happen after previously failed Sqoop import or in cases when users
> are re-importing the tables on regular basis.
> Right now user is forced to remove the input directory manually prior
> re-executing Sqoop. I think that it might be useful to add a new argument
> that would nuke the target directory if it exists automatically.
> I believe that this feature will be safe to use as it will be turned off by
> default. User will have to explicitly specify extra command line argument in
> order to remove any data.
