Heroku releases - how to roll forward after rolling back?

Heroku has a "releases" feature that allows you to roll back to a specific deployment release. I've seen a lot of info about rolling back, but how do you roll forward again after rolling back?

Basically, I'd like to roll back to a particular release to see if it was the one that introduced some bugs. I have a feeling it isn't, so I'm pretty sure I'll be reverting back (rolling forward) to the latest release as soon as I find out.

And if it's not doable with Heroku releases, I imagine it is with Git. That said, if I use Git to do this, I don't want my local Git repo's history to be touched. I'd only want the Heroku repo to be rolled back/forward.

So... how?

This seems very doable with the heroku client from their toolbelt.

heroku releases:info

and then

heroku rollback v502

to the forward version you want

Not possible at the moment.

Here is Heroku Release API:

https://api-docs.heroku.com/releases

Options:

  • List releases for an app
  • Get info for a release
  • Rollback to a release

You need to do it via Git, witch i think it is the better way in general.

/Edit:

The Git way:

git reset --hard <tag/branch/commit id>
