You should read the section of the book on Vendor Branches. You'll
basically ignore the fact that the vendor's code is available via
Subversion at all, and just periodically import new versions of their
code into your repository using a script called svn_load_dirs.pl. You
can make a copy of their code to anywhere else in your repository and
start making changes. When you want to update your code with new code
of theirs, you can merge from the imported version of their code to
yours.
