The locations would would be passed explicitly, e.g.
tla archive-mirror http://... sftp://....
archive-mirror would just have verify that the destination is
actually a mirror of the source archive (the source location can be
a mirror as well).

I have not checked the code but I guess it could be called with
'source location' and 'destination location', fetch the archive
names from these locations and ensure they match.

I agree, just that I wonder whether or not any work done before at
all would be lost.
