question about applying patch

[Chalcy Raja]

Hi,

I am trying to import sqlserver table in to hive table using sqoop.  The import 
failed on nvarchar field.  There is a patch released as per 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SQOOP-323?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels%3Aall-tabpanel#issue-tabs.

How do I apply this patch to the existing sqoop?

Thank you,
Chalcy

The error I am getting is,

Hive does not support the SQL type for column xxxxxxxx  -- the column is 
nvarchar
