Gotcha: drush sql-sync does not drop existing tables

When you run drush sql-sync @example.prod @example.dev you do not have exactly what is on your example production site. Tables that do not exist on production but do exist on your local development site will still exist.

You need to drop all tables in the database, or simply drop and re-create the database, first.
