Yea I'm SOL here. I can always refuse those kinds of patches, but if the other side is just unwilling to understand this won't help. It will just mean that I do not get any patches anymore which will only hurt myself. So what I am trying to do here is get the best out of the files. That's why I asked my initial question if there is some kind of possibility within TSVN to help here.

It would probably work if I create a temporary branch, check in (overwrite) the files I was sent and do a merge from there. But that doesn't really feel right.
