I have been using repo init on existing mirror in a script to checkout proper manifest versions so my local manifest files match up correctly
for each sync operation. This currently broke in commit b292b98c3e9a9f666ca780ba60fdb4f306eca343
Command: repo init -u https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest
error output:

Add remote alias support in manifest
The `alias` is an optional attribute in element `remote`. It can be
used to override attibute `name` to be set as the remote name in each
project's .git/config. Its value can be duplicated while attribute
`name` has to be unique across the manifest file. This helps each
project to be able to have same remote name which actually points
to different remote url.
It eases some automation scripts to be able to checkout/push to same
remote name but actually different remote url, like:
repo forall -c "git checkout -b work same_remote/work"
repo forall -c "git push same_remote work:work"
for example:
The manifest with 'alias' will look like:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<manifest>
<remote alias="same_alias" fetch="git://git.external1.org/" name="ext1"
review="http://review.external1.org"/>
<remote alias="same_alias" fetch="git://git.external2.org/" name="ext2"
review="http://review.external2.org"/>
<remote alias="same_alias" fetch="ssh://git.internal.com:29418" name="int"
review="http://review.internal.com"/>
<default remote="int" revision="int-branch" sync-j="2"/>
<project name="path/to/project1" path="project1" remote="ext1"/>
<project name="path/to/project2" path="project2" remote="ext2"/>
<project name="path/to/project3" path="project3"/>
...
</manifest>
In each project, use command "git remote -v"
project1:
same_alias git://git.external1.org/project1 (fetch)
same_alias git://git.external1.org/project1 (push)
project2:
same_alias git://git.external2.org/project2 (fetch)
same_alias git://git.external2.org/project2 (push)
project3:
same_alias ssh://git.internal.com:29418/project3 (fetch)
same_alias ssh://git.internal.com:29418/project3 (push)
