renumber

Change the sequence

To renumber is to assign new numbers to a sequence, typically to restore order or accommodate changes: After deleting several entries, I had to renumber the list.

The term appears in computing, document editing, and any context where items are numbered consecutively: The compiler renumbers the lines automatically.
