I successfully pushed a live app to heroku on cedar stack at livebytransit.com a few weeks ago, and I have successfully pushed code changes until recently. I have not been able to push code changes after creating a staging app from the same working directory...see afternoon-cloud-6227.herokuapp.com. My thought was to push changes first to afternoon-cloud, then if all looked good, push to the main site. As it stands right now, I can't push changes to either app.

Here is some code that shows some things I have tried. I think there are so many things wrong with this that my best bet is to probably create a new folder, clone the app from github, and redeploy to a new app on heroku and burn the two existing apps....but I have some users that would get blown away in the process so I would like to salvage what I have in my existing directory if possible.

One thing that is really puzzling me is why origin is misspelled. It makes me wonder if I somehow changed this by accident? Any thoughts or advice would be very much appreciated.

It sounds to me like your heroku remote is borked in .git/config.

Given that your application is living at livebytransit.herokuapp.com, your heroku remote should be:

git@heroku.com:livebytransit.git

If you're looking to have topic branches of the same application running in two seperate Heroku applications I recommend you read this:

  • Thanks for the comments Neil. I opened the .git/config and changed the heroku remote per your comments, but no change. I also tried copying all of my code into a new directory and redeploying to a new app on cedar....but git push heroku master does not work with no errors. Have you ever run into anything like this? Thanks for the link, I will certainly bookmark this for future reference. – tomb Jan 11 '12 at 20:41
  • Neil, it turns out that you were right about the git@heroku.com:livebytransit.git. Also, the address to my github origin master account is case sensitive, so had to be LiveByTransit.git. Thanks! Tom – tomb Jan 17 '12 at 21:38

Neil's answer actually worked for me. I checked .git/config and found that somehow, there was an extra .git in there, as follows:

[remote "heroku"]
url = git@heroku.com:jon-demo-app.git.git
fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/heroku/*

I changed jon-demo-app.git.git to jon-demo-app.git and was golden.
