[This short thread](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/revise-jl-dosnt-work-on-include-ed-files/26872) addresses this, this is how `includet` is supposed to work: “include and track _this_ file”. To automatically track a network of included files, you need to [work on a package](https://timholy.github.io/Revise.jl/stable/#Usage-example-1). I think you could technically replace nested `include`s with `includet` but you’d also have to temporarily import `Revise` in all your modules, and that’s not recommended over package work.

An aside, the other issue that thread addresses appears to have been patched by now.
