RELENG_4 is the development branch for FreeBSD-STABLE. RELENG_4_7 and RELENG_4_8 are the security fix branches for those releases. If you want to track the most current code, use RELENG_4. If you just want to ensure your system is updated with the latest security patches for your release use RELENG_4_7, or RELENG_4_8 if you want to upgrade. Cheers, Viktor
