Bedrock uses a modified folder structure but WP core is completely intact. We just disable auto-updates since you update WP itself through Composer. Even if you enabled auto-update I don’t think it would break anything. The update just wouldn’t be reflected in your Git repository since it only happened on the production server.

Do you mean plugins/themes that aren’t in WP plugin directory? Composer can pull from WPackagist, normal Packagist, any custom Git/SVN repository, zip file, etc. I suggest searching this forum for other Composer topics like [Best way to install private/paid plugins with Composer?](http://discourse.roots.io/t/best-way-to-install-private-paid-plugins-with-composer/1045).

There’s this post as well: [http://roots.io/wordpress-plugins-with-composer/](http://roots.io/wordpress-plugins-with-composer/)
