cloned project from github. heroku does not work

Question

I cloned a project from github over to my desktop. I used to work on it form my laptop.

However, on laptop heroku does not seem to work for this app eventhough i have i

Answer 1

I believe I get the error No app specified. Run this command from an app folder or specify which app to use with --app when I run any ambiguous heroku commands. Example:

heroku logs

It's ambiguous because I have multiple remote repositories specified in my project's .git/config file. The solution for me is simply to specify the remote repository. Example:

heroku logs --remote staging

In the above line --remote staging corresponds to the following in my project's .git/config file:

[remote "staging"]
    url = git@heroku.accountname:foo-bar-1234.git
    fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/staging/*

I hope this helps you.. if not, then perhaps it may help someone else!
