> Usage information upon invoking LoadIncrementalHFiles is misleading and 
> error-prone.
> {code:java}
> usage: completebulkload /path/to/hfileoutputformat-output tablename -loadTable
> -Dcreate.table=no - can be used to avoid creation of table by this tool
> Note: if you set this to 'no', then the target table must already exist in 
> HBase
> -loadTable implies your baseDirectory to store file has a depth of 3 ,you 
> must have an existing table
> -Dignore.unmatched.families=yes - can be used to ignore unmatched column 
> families{code}
> in case of invoking the class via hbase command, completebulkload argument is 
> unnecessary and only required via hadoop jar invocation. This is also an 
> attempt to clarify where <-loadTable> and <-Dargs> arguments go on the 
> command line.
> Furthermore, since LoadIncrementalHFiles was recently moved out of 
> hbase-server.jar to hbase-mapreduce, updating ref guide to demonstrate as 
> such.
