Hi,

Other alternative way would be,
 - create a local manifest inside
.repo/local_manifests/<custom_manifest>.xml
 - create tags to remove AOSP modules which you do not want for your build
 - add entry for the modules, which you would like to replace instead

This will ensure along with standard AOSP, you stuff gets synced and *not
required AOSP* module will not come in to real picture :)
