Thanks. I would suggest:

Enter verify mode instead of restore. This will restore each file from
the latest backup and compare it to the local copy.
If the --file-to-restore option is given, restrict verify to that file
or directory. duplicity will exit with a non-zero error level if any
files are different. On verbosity level 4 or higher, log a message for
each file that has changed. 

But one moment: that man page is from duplicity, not from duply. If
duply is aimed at being the friendlier more convenient front-end to
duplicity, then there really needs to be a mention of it in duply's man
page.
