1. Stop the system.

2. Modify the source code containing the function.

2a. Save the file.

3. Copy function definition to the debugger’s repl, and evaluate it.

4. Resume the system from frame that calls the function.

But yes, you must be diligent about making sure the source files contain the code that is actually running, but that’s not much different than artifact tracking.
