I have a small Sinatra app that weighs in at only 256K (excluding compiled 
gems, of course). However, every time I make a minor change to the app and 
push to Heroku, the slug size increases by about 0.1 MB. This is not due to 
adding gems or other binaries; this happens even when I'm pushing small 
text changes to the Sinatra application, and the size never seems to go 
back down.

This shouldn't be a Git repository issue. According to this 
page<https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/slug-compiler>, 
the slug compiler shouldn't be affected by loose objects or new blobs 
because it purges the Git repository during compilation. The page says:

2. Remove unused files, including the .git directory, anything in log and 
> tmp, and anything specified in a top-level .slugignore file.

Why should changing a few characters in a view result in a 
constantly-growing slug size? More importantly, what can I do to force the 
slug compiler to start fresh?
