reedit

Polish text anew

To reedit is to edit again—revising, reworking, or restructuring material that has already been edited once.

The term applies especially to film, video, and written text: The director reedited the documentary after test audiences found it confusing.

A reedit may be minor cleanup or a substantial overhaul.
