Question

I have created an app on heroku and pushed my code (after creating git repo by git init).
My app folder contains a requirements.txt in which I wrongfully put matplotlib before numpy. (Actually numpy is needed to install matpplotlib and so should come before it).

When I pushed to heroku master,the compilation failed with an error message ‘numpy is needed to install matplotlib’.
So I corrected the order of items in requirements.txt and using git add, git commit etc committed it.
Then I tried to push the code again using git push heroku master.
But it failed with the same error message

here is the requirements.txt

Django==1.4.3
South==0.7.6
distribute==0.6.28
dj-database-url==0.2.1
django-registration==0.8
numpy==1.6.2
matplotlib==1.2.0
psycopg2==2.4.6
python-memcached==1.48
wsgiref==0.1.2
simplejson==3.0.7

Then I tried to find the status using

git status and it produced

# On branch master
# Your branch is ahead of 'origin/master' by 2 commits.
# nothing to commit (working directory clean)

I used to add my code to Github.
I think the origin/master relates to that. Am I wrong?

How do I find the status of my commit on heroku?
My app has a name say [e-mail]:myapp.git.

Regarding the status, you have several options:

• “git: check if pull needed“:

git remote -v update
git status -uno

• “git equivalent of svn status -u“:

git fetch heroku
git log --name-only ..heroku/master

---

Check if origin does point to heroku or not:

git remote -v

In that case, a simple git push isn’t enough

Depending on your default push policy, you might want to make sure your branch has heroku/master as upstream branch:

git push -u heroku master
