> According to #MAPREDUCE-4549, Hadoop 2.x throws exception if duplicates found in cacheFiles or cacheArchives. The exception  throws during job submission.
> This JIRA is to throw the exception ==early== when it is first added to the Distributed Cache through addCacheFile or addFileToClassPath.
> It will help the client to decide whether to fail-fast or continue w/o the duplicated entries.
> Alternatively, Hadoop could provide a knob where user will choose whether to throw error( coming behavior) or silently ignore (old behavior).
