Question

I have a rails app that is deployed to Heroku. I recently made a ton of changes, deleted old migrations, recreated new migrations, rebased and dealt with merge conflicts....the

Answer 1

Destroy the app:

heroku apps:destroy --app example

Create a new one:

heroku create example

Push to it:

git push heroku -u master

Answer 2

If you don't want to delete the entire application (perhaps you want to keep your add-ons and other configuration the same), you can reset the database and force update the code.

Deploy your new code, forcing the update by using the -f flag:

git push heroku master -f

Drop and recreate the database:

heroku pg:reset <DATABASE>

Migrate the fresh database:

heroku run rake db:migrate
