             Summary: Enforcing uniqueness of paramLabel across command options
                 Key: CASSANDRA-21509
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-21509
             Project: Apache Cassandra
          Issue Type: Task
            Reporter: Maxim Muzafarov
            Assignee: Maxim Muzafarov


On trunk, paramLabel is display-only: duplicate labels cause no parsing or 
behavioral problem, only ambiguous help output which some time confuses a 
command usage.

The uniqueness rule such as "paramLabels must be unique within a command across 
options, aliases, and positionals is a new convention this ticket introduces, 
not an existing invariant being violated. Its purpose is forward-looking: 
CASSANDRA-19476 (CEP-38) turns these labels into wire keys in a flat. Enforcing 
the convention on trunk now means no new commands can introduce collisions.
