You can also set 'enabled=0" for the repo, then after a "yum update"
from the base repos, do a "yum --enablerepo=xxx install package..."
(or update) for the specific packages you want from there.. This
isn't quite as full-auto as specifying the packages in the repo
file,but it will bring along dependencies that you might have to add
piecemeal. Just be sure you look at the list of packages yum is
proposing to change before confirming it.
