Updating values in Sqoop export

I am using Sqoop export command to export data from HDFS to sql database periodically. Here is my columns and with sample data

Date          source     count
01-Feb-2015     xxxx      100

What my doubt is If I have data as follows in HDFS

01-Feb-2015    xxxx    250

I am now using simple export command. Hence after my next export operation database is updated as

  Date         source     count
 01-Feb-2015    xxxx      100
 01-Feb-2015    xxxx      250

Is there any option in sqoop to achieve following result

01-Feb-2015    xxxx   350

Sqoop has the concept of Updates if you specify the update-key. Take a look this section in Sqoop's user guide explaining about Inserts vs Updates and how you could perform updates with sqoop-export.
