I make some changes in local files, how can I deploy the new version?
if I type git push heroku master, it's say everything up to date, but the application wasn't changed.
You probably need to commit your changes first.
Run git commit -a -m "updated some files"
then run git push....
So you’re on a git repo with a remote repo named heroku?
Did you commit your changes, and afterwards push?
They have to be commited locally so you can push them.
When you clone a repository with git the remote repository you cloned from will be added as “origin”, then a simple git push will push to the origin.
If that’s not the case, you can use the name of another/your remote repository you added first, or it’s URL.
Also see the doc for git push: http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-push.html

Well I'm working on rails project. Well I want o upload updated version of whole application on github branch name "dev_Bee". So can you tell me the step wise procedure how to upload my application on a specific branch. Well I'm working on ubuntu so please try to give commands for ubuntu.
Since you are using rails I'll assume your project has already git initiated.
First, you need to stage all the changes and commit
git add .
git commit -m 'Your Commit Message Here'
Then checkout to a new branch of your desired name
git checkout -b dev_Bee
Set your remote repository
git remote set-url origin https://github.com/<gitusernamehere>/<git-repo-name-here>.git
And finally push the changes to remote
git push -u origin dev_Bee
Here is what I did:
Created a Ruby on Rails app.
Initialized empty git rep
Made changes to my app and saved them (git add -A and git commit -m "blahblah")
Deployed to Heroku.
But when I visit git hub it shows zero repos?
What did I do wrong?
I think you confound github and heroku.
It's two differents repository.
Deploying to heroku with something like this:
git push heroku master
does not affect your github account.
You can have several repository for the same project.
To add a repository:
git remote add NAME_OF_YOUR_REPO URL_OF_YOUR_REPO
(you can create a project in github, and they will git you a URL_OF_YOUR_REPO)
example:
git remote add origin https://github.com/user/repo.git
after you can do:
git push origin master
and you will see your commits on github.
I am using cloud9 IDE on a rails tutorial app. I created a repo and then pushed the app to the repo on bitbucket. I got messed up on the app so decided to start from beginning. I deleted the repo and worked on the app until it worked. I created another repo on bitbucket and did all commits and when I did these I got a message saying I was three or five commits ahead of remote. So when I did a push I got
git push
No refs in common and none specified; doing nothing.
Perhaps you should specify a branch such as 'master'.
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
Everything up-to-date
If you don't mind starting from scratch and losing your app's history.
Create a new repo on Bitbucket.
Next, remove the .git directory from your local project.
Then initialize a new git repo locally
git init
git add --all
git commit -m "Initial commit"
On Bitbucket you'll see a screen like the one below.
Now just run the commands as exactly as it instructs
cd /path/to/my/repo
git remote add origin git#bitbucket.org:your-username/project.git
git push -u origin --all
git push -u origin --tags
Then everything should be reset without any history.
I am collaborating on a project and cloned the repo from Github, made some changes and pushed to Heroku. Now the cloned app had all of its keys and passwords hardcoded, not in ENV variables.
So I created ENV variables, added the file to .gitignore. So this app still has these keys in the commit history. What I have done now is have the author create a new repo on Github, remove .git file from original app and push new code to new repo.
So now I have cloned the new app, added a new remote the the Heroku app.
heroku git:remote -a myapplication
My issue is I cannot push the new app to the existing Heroku app. When I do I get:
error: failed to push some refs to 'git#heroku.com:myapplication.git
hint: Updates were rejected because the tip of your current branch is behind
hint: its remote counterpart. Merge the remote changes (e.g. 'git pull')
hint: before pushing again.
hint: See the 'Note about fast-forwards' in 'git push --help' for details.
So a git pull says everything is up to date.
git remote -v outputs
heroku git#heroku.com:myapplication.git (fetch)
heroku git#heroku.com:myapplication.git (push)
origin git#github.com:author/myapplication.git (fetch)
origin git#github.com:author/myapplication.git (push)
What can I do to push the new application to the existing heroku app?
Update
I ran
git push -f heroku master
which pushed but I had error
you have not declared a Ruby version in your Gemfile.
To set your Ruby version add this line to your Gemfile:"
ruby '1.9.2'"
I've never had to specify before, and now all the original config vars that where set are no longer stored in Heroku.
git pull would pull by default from GitHub, which has all your commits already.
You might need to:
git pull heroku
clean-up the files (if the merge brings back the hardcoded values)
push to origin
push to heroku through the heroku command.
Git uses the concept of tracked branch to know which remote branch is linked to a local branch.
In your case, you probably have your local branch (I suppose it's master) linked to origin/master. So, when you do a git pull, Git is trying to get new stuff from git#github.com:author/myapplication.git, which is not the wanted behavior.
You have to change your tracked branch using :
git branch --set-upstream-to heroku/my_branch
Then, you can do a git pull which will now have the wanted behavior. Then just push to heroku, as you always do.
I got this error message (copied below) after trying to push to Heroku. I initially set up a facebook canvas app and selected the hosting on heroku options. It gave me a heroku url, which I added as a remote on the app I was developing on my machine
heroku git:remote -a desolate-springs-1684
But when I pushed, I got this error
error: failed to push some refs to 'git#heroku.com:desolate-springs-1684.git'
To prevent you from losing history, non-fast-forward updates were rejected
Merge the remote changes (e.g. 'git pull') before pushing again. See the
'Note about fast-forwards' section of 'git push --help' for details.
localhost:nhl michaelmitchell$
So I did
git push -f heroku master
But now I apparently have to do a 'git pull'. However, what do i put after the 'git pull'? The name of the heroku url? or something else?
Forcing your git push was not a good idea because you lost any commit that was done by you or other collaborators you were missing on your working copy.
Before pushing, you should have either merged or rebased the upstream changes into your local working copy.
To merge the changes locally
$ git pull heroku master
$ git push heroku master
To rebase the changes locally
$ git pull --rebase heroku master
$ git push heroku master
BTW, now that you have pushed your changes, you actually don't need to do anything else. The remote repository already contains all your changes.
If for whatever reason the $ git status command is returning outdated references, simply run
$ git pull heroku
to fetch all the remote changes. Please note that unless you specify a target branch (or you have the tracking branch enabled), git pull will simply download (and not merge) the upstream changes.
Also note that Heroku should not be considered a git hosting. It means that it's extremely uncommon to perform a git pull from Heroku. Instead, you should use a git hosting (such as GitHub or BitBucket) to store your repository and only perform push to Heroku to deploy the application.
That error basically means that there is code in the repo that is newer than the code you're trying to push to it.
you have to do a pull and update your own working repository then push again, or just force a push
git pull heroku master
As a side note, if you aren't familiar with all the git commands, I would recommend you use a GUI as it may make the whole process a lot less overwhelming.
