Summary:  tla cacherev generates incorrect inode signature when cacheing into a 
mirror

Original Submission:  if one issues

$ tla cacherev <a revision identifier in a mirror> 

the generated tarball contains a {arch}/,,inode-sigs directory with entries for 
the mirror registered name, not the mirrors canonical name. Folk unpacking the 
tarball will presumably be doing so to build the revision under the canonical 
name, so it should be used. 



Additionally, cacherev could use a line of text such as "To cache a revision 
into an already mirrored archive, supply cacherev with the mirror location as 
part of the version specification. Cacherev understands mirrors and will 
generate an appropriate cached revision." in the help.
