Thanks
  

Top answer

I've never come across this idiom. We put another hole in the belt to make it fit a smaller waist (or larger). We put another notch on the handle of a gun to keep track of the number of people shot.

Hi
Same here, I don't remember coming across this idiom. Give us some context. I only know:
pull one's belt in (a notch), take one's belt in (a notch).....
