Only the maximum value of an integer on your system and the amount of
disk space you have available to hole the repository.

No.

No, the branch was created after the import.  Since you hadn't made any
local changes to the file before the branch was created, the branch was
rooted at the imported version on the vendor branch rather than being
rooted on the trunk.  That's perfectly normal and nothing to worry
about.
