Error: fatal: Not a git repository (or any parent up to mount point /app)

Question

My deployment to heroku was successful, but whenever I try and open the app it crashes. I check heroku logs and am getting these errors:

fatal: Not a git repository (or any parent up to mount point /app)State changed from starting to crashed 2015-12-22T12:36:13.277955+00:00 heroku[web.1]: State changed from crashed to starting

This seems to be a duplicate question: At least try if this solves your problem: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4630704/receiving-fatal-not-a-git-repository-when-attempting-to-remote-add-a-git-repo — Alexander Trust, Dec 22 '15 at 20:22
I'm finding this error strange because I am definitely pushing to heroku from a git repo -- I've been pushing for the last few weeks without any such error, my app just crashed and this error showed up in heroku logs after a successful push to heroku from the same root file I've been pushing from for the past few weeks. — anishasri, Dec 22 '15 at 20:34
Maybe something broke then and files are missing. Try to initialize your cloud files once again. Maybe that helps. — Alexander Trust, Dec 22 '15 at 20:36
Thank you @AlexanderTrust, I'm building for a project so continuing to build locally and returning to these errors after the deadline. Thank you. — anishasri, Dec 23 '15 at 16:17
