if you tried out software developing you'd notice pretty fast that it's impossible to keep track of every single thing you change.
it might be easy in the beginning of development if you add things in a certain order(skills first, then anims, then sounds, etc) but when you're doing bug fixes you're changing things here and there, and the next hour you change around the fixes since they didn't work, or the new fixes introduced another bug so you have to go another way. actually, i'd assume it's that way all the time unless you're making a very primitive game.
it's just impossible, unless you want to spend 50%+ of your time on documention.
