"Ease your vendor branch management worries with Piston

Piston is a utility that eases vendor branch management. This is similar to svn:externals, except you have a local copy of the files, which you can modify at will. As long as the changes are mergeable, you should have no problems.
Install Piston
First, you need to have Ruby installed (even though we aren't doing any programming in Ruby) in order to run Piston:

yum install ruby
yum install rdoc


cd /extra/src

Installing modules with Piston

piston import http://<your_drupal_repo>/svn/drupal/modules/<module_name>/current <module_name>

Upgrading a module
