I'm following the tutorial to deploy a ruby app to google compute engine. Everything works, however I now want to ssh into the app to run migrations etc. After some searching i was able to find my files under a docker instance here /var/lib/docker/aufs/diff/e2972171505a931749490e13d21e4f8c0bb076245ef4b592aff6667c45b2dd13/app

Is there a simpler way to access my files? perhaps a symlinked folder?

Ruby apps on Google AppEngine run via Docker. Because AppEngine is a PaaS provider, it's discouraged (though possible) to run commands on production machines. If you'd like to run database migrations, please run them locally and point your configuration at your production database.
