Duplicate assets after deployment of app in Heroku

I'm very new with rails development and deployment using Heroku.

So recently I found that some JavaScript files that seems to be duplicated. For example I made a javascript function in one file (sample.js), then I erased this file, and I put the function inside of application.js.

Under my test development, it works perfect. But then when I commit the changes to heroku, I end up having the same function twice!

The javascript files are under the folder /app/assets/javascripts/

So how can I tell heroku to remove the duplicate files?

Am I missing some step before sending new version of my app to heroku?

Any help will be greatly appreciated

ruby 1.9.2p290 (2011-07-09 revision 32553) [i686-linux] Rails 3.1.0

You're only deleting files from the repo when you use the git rm command. Even if you delete the actual file, it's still in the repo, and won't be changed by the git add -f * command (which only adds changed files).

You should be able to remove the file from heroku by running these commands:

$ git rm app/assets/javascripts/sample.js
$ git commit -m 'your commit message'
$ git push heroku master
