描述
Feature or enhancement
Proposal:
When a user runs:
python -m venv myenv
and the directory already contains a virtual environment, Python silently performs no action. This behavior can be confusing, as the user receives no indication that the command had no effect.
I propose that venv should display a simple warning when it detects an existing virtual environment so the user knows the operation didn’t make any changes.
Example of the suggested output:
$ python -m venv myenv
Existing virtual environment found at 'myenv'.
No changes were made.
Use '--clear' to recreate this environment.
This provides clarity while keeping behavior backward-compatible. Users who want to recreate the environment can explicitly use --clear.
Has this already been discussed elsewhere?

调研方向
从 python -m venv 入口点开始,比较目标目录中已经包含环境时的行为。验证现有的 --clear 选项如何改变该行为。当现有环境产生提议的警告并报告未进行任何更改,同时显式清除仍然可用时,即视为完成。
