I have added a pretty substantial change to a javascript file. However, in order for the new changes to register, I need to refresh my browser. I imagine this is how it will be for all the other people using this site as well.

    You can rename the file, or just add a random parameter when loading the file:

    <script src="/javascripts/application.js?version=4" type="text/javascript"></script>
