ruby on rails 3 - How to reset Heroku app and re-commit everything?

Question

I'm building an application which I'm also testing in Heroku. I ran into some problem today and had to rollback one commit in my local git repo, but Heroku now won't recognize my changes saying that "everything is up to date".

So, running

git push heroku master

heroku responds with

Everything up-to-date

which isn't true.

UPDATE: Things I've tried

git push -f heroku master
git push --force heroku master
git push heroku +master
git push --force heroku +master

Did some changes in the source code and then

git add.
git commit -a -m "Message" #(Then this commit shows in my git explorer)
git push heroku master #Everything up-to-date

Answer 1

Sounds weird. Maybe try pushing a different branch would do?

git branch production
git checkout production
#do some code changes
git commit -am "some desperate code changes to try fix heroku"
git push heroku production:master

Creating a new production branch is what I want you to test. Besides, it's nice to have a production branch that you can use to deploy.

If it doesn't work, then I think the problem runs deeper and you need help from heroku.

EDIT: Add the heroku releases addon too. Rolling back is as easy as heroku rollback
