How to "restart init" on a disconnected system?

I mirrored the repository with

repo init -u <uri of manifest> --mirror repo sync

and copied it (via usb) to a system disconnected from the Internet, along with a repo script and repo repository repository repository from https://gerrit.googlesource.com/git-repo/clone.bundle .

Now I want to create a new client from the mirror, but when I ran the command.

 repo init -u <uri of manifest on mirror>

I get the following error.

 fatal: Cannot get https://gerrit.googlesource.com/git-repo/clone.bundle fatal: error [Errno -2] Name or service not known

So I have clone.bundle, but I have no way to convince the repo to use it.

Any suggestions?

There is an option that seems to be completely undocumented on the Internet for repos. This is a repo url that allows you to reevaluate where the repo is looking for the latest version.

This is what I did:

I had a package saved in my house as git -repo-clone.bundle

 repo init -u < uri of manifest on mirror > --repo-url ~/git-repo-clone.bundle

I found this by reading the repo script myself and thought I wanted to share.

It seems that the repo tool that was installed on your system comes from the git-repo repository from the Google Gerrit project. This problem can be easily solved by doing something similar to OwainD's answer, but only using a mirror, without requiring another repo.

 repo init -u <mirror uri>/platform/manifest.git --repo-url <mirror uri>/tools/repo.git

This also solved the problem and did not allow me to grab another repository and transfer it to an unconnected machine.
