Take a look at the Subversion documentation (the "book") and search for
`Vendor branches`.
First paragraph of that section:
As is especially the case when developing software, the data that you
maintain under version control is often closely related to, or perhaps
dependent upon, someone else's data. Generally, the needs of your
project will dictate that you stay as up-to-date as possible with the
data provided by that external entity without sacrificing the stability
of your own project. [...]
The section deals specifically with the situation how to manage 3rd party
source code with subversion which you want to update from time to time and
even apply some modifications.
