Sole purpose of the update for repository packages is to replace *.repo file with the one with correct link, but rather then to edit file they replace it, thus defaulting any change you made.
This isn't true, provided that the file is marked as config(noreplace) in the rpm -- which is the case for at least epel-release on EL6 which I've just verified -- local changes will not be overwritten, but instead the RPM will install the new config with a .rpmnew extension.
