If you're doing 'zfs send -i @first tank/foo/b...@second | zfs recv -F
newtank/foo/bar' then 'zfs recv -F' is the same as doing 'zfs rollback
newtank/foo/b...@first'. Any changes made on the newtank dataset will
be lost.

If you've done any snapshots on the received dataset (which is easy to
do if you have the auto-snap service running) -F will not delete them.
You'll have to manually go in and rollback datasets to the start
snapshot.
