Hi Otheus,

Thanks a lot for your reply,..

btw, before I update this critical patches:

1. Do I need to register to RHEL in order for me to use the up2date?

2. For updates in RHEL need to use up2date, but what is the thing that I need to do before the patches? I mean what should I backup in case my patches did not go well, so at least I can bring back to the normal state again.

NAME
stg-sink - Send patches deeper down the stack SYNOPSIS
stg sink [-t <target patch>] [-n] [<patches>] DESCRIPTION
This is the opposite operation of linkstg:float[]: move the specified patches down the stack. It is for example useful to group stable patches near the bottom of the stack, where they are less likely to be impacted by the push of another patch, and from where they can be more easily committed or pushed. If no patch is specified on command-line, the current patch gets sunk. By default patches are sunk to the bottom of the stack, but the --to option allows to place them under any applied patch. Sinking internally involves popping all patches (or all patches including <target patch>), then pushing the patches to sink, and then (unless --nopush is also given) pushing back into place the formerly-applied patches. OPTIONS
-n, --nopush Do not push back on the stack the formerly-applied patches. Only the patches to sink are pushed. -t TARGET, --to TARGET Specify a target patch to place the patches below, instead of sinking them to the bottom of the stack. -k, --keep Keep the local changes. STGIT
Part of the StGit suite - see linkman:stg[1] StGit 03/13/2012 STG-SINK(1)
