where did the rest come from

Svnbook says that:

 X 3rd_party # каталог является частью внешней зависимости

what to do with him?

It depends on what result you want to get.

how will they behave when creating a branch

They will behave in the same way as in trunc, because svn, strictly speaking, has no branches.
