That would be a way to proceed. But it would take a large amount of your
time, just to find the correspondences between the old and the new code.
A cheaper way of getting "incremental" reviews could be that, every 2 days,
you post a code snippet of 20-100 lines, with a couple of intro blurb
(unless the comments already say everything). This way, you will likely
catch the attention of more eyes.
