Research direction
Look for sink implementations (Parquet, AvroParquet, Avro, Orc, Csv) in the codebase, likely under a 'sink' or 'io' package. Understand how they currently write to HDFS and where configuration options are handled. The goal is to add a 'withOverwrite' method that sets a flag to overwrite existing output files. Check existing tests for sinks to see how to add a test for the new option.
