After editing a file in its package, rerunning `using REVISETEST` actually [reevaluates and reimports it](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/best-practice-develop-and-adjust-own-package-precompilation/103656/4). Revise is designed to automatically make some small changes to live code when you edit the tracked source code, no need to do the big overhauls (rerunning `include`, `using`, `import`) and waste time reevaluating lines you didn’t change. You will have to do the big overhauls once in a while because small interactive changes out of order does not always have the same effect, but you can get a lot done with small changes.
