Ah, I see now why you are doing this, I wasn't aware that the release package contains those .repo files. *However*, as I said earlier (and unless you use different filenames for your local repo) the new centos-release will *not* overwrite your existing CentOS-Base.repo file etc. So, if this is your concern: this is not a problem.

In order to use my repo files, I move CentOS ones to backup subfolder, so update reinsert them.
Since I already have my solution, I'll not return official *.repo files, but I will keep in mind ".rpmnew stuff".
I created my plc-* (mirrors) and plnet-* (addon packages from various repos for desktop use and packages compiled by me) release packages for various uses that are saved in subfolder(s) and then I developed small shell script that makes it possible to switch from one *.repo set to another (like from all of my repositories enabled, with official disabled, to only official with only my additional repositories). So if my server is down, I can update and install from official mirrors with ease.
