So I can see the changes locally, but even after a successful push to heroku, it still doesn't reflect those changes. I've tried everything suggested in this link but to no luck so I'm not so sure what's going on.
git push heroku master says "Everything up-to-date", but the app is not current
Also, I've checked that the heroku git repository does indeed contain the new files and it does so I don't know why heroku doesn't load them.
