Hi DAZ,
(I'll post this to the list in case someone finds it helpful.)
You can import the app back into Heroku but it's much more
fun (IMO/YMMV) to use git. There are some great tutorials
and screencasts about how to use git but here's a workflow
that I typically use (I develop locally and deploy to Heroku
using git):
If I change anything using Heroku's editor:
Click Revisions
Add a comment about what I changed
Click commit button
This keeps the revisions on Heroku and my local machine in
sync. Then on my local machine, using a command line
interface in the root directory of my app:
git pull
<enter my passphrase>
Do whatever I want locally, add files, remove files, modify
files, then when I'm finished and want to push it back to
Heroku, I go back to the command line interface (terminal or
Windows' cmd) in the working directory of my app and:
git status (lists files modified, removed, added)
git add <filename> (for each file modified)
git rm <filename> (for each file removed)
git add <filename> (for each new file added)
git commit -v -a (add comment about what changed)
git push
<enter my passphrase>
Seems like a lot of work but it works well enough for me and
I have a revision history. I can branch, go back, etc. I'm
hoping that Heroku or some other software/script will add
the capability to rollback to a previous version.
