I'm doing the same thing. The issue I had was that the bitbucket repos 
are formatted like "device-moto-wingray" instead of device/moto/wingray 
so my mirror started checking out new repos and generally changing the 
directory layout of the mirror. I guess I could have copied everything 
over to the new locations and updated all the manifests but I found it 
lazier to "fix" repo, I'm not sure if they intended to do this or not:

diff --git a/manifest_xml.py b/manifest_xml.py
index a46cf24..a4c56e6 100644
