> Assume you have two snapshots for /dir: s1, s2, when you do "hdfs dfs
> -renameSnapshot /dir s2 s1" which means you want to rename s2 to s1. It will
> cause s2 been dropped silently and s1 still keep the previous one. This is
> very confusing and easily cause wrong operation.
> The right behavior should be providing a warning to remind user that the
> target name is already existed and do nothing. If user do want to overlap s1,
> he should add some option (i.e. "-f") or delete s1 first.
