A rewrite is a harsh way to improve a software program, by scrapping the old source and replacing it with a better, cleaner or faster way.
Repeated rewrites are a serious menace to the success of the project, as they may indicate there is not a clear set goal or the developer is perfecting the game more than he should.
Project rewrite count
- Guardian Angel 3 rewrites
