Definition

Remake after remake, remakes of remakes - keep an order of it by indexing all of them by their release. A release must only be maintained for a location that is a remake of another.

Use

If there are several remakes of an original they might interfere each other in the one or other way. To avoid contradictory influences on the original they will be considered in their order of release, the newest (having the highest release) overrides "earlier" releases.

Dependencies

It's getting interesting when suddenly remakes of remakes come into the game -suddenly there's a family tree of relations between all releases and their common root location. Starting at the highest level of that tree each release branch will be considered completely before going on to the next release branch having a higher release than the previous.
