Recompile Heroku slug without push or config change

Question

I\'m wondering if there is a way to force Heroku to recompile the slug without pushing new commits and/or updating the config variables.

Why would I want to do this?

Answer 1

Slug compilation is invoked with a git pre-recieve hook, so the only way to recompile is to push a new commit.

For completeness see this article on Heroku for the slug compiler. It discussed the use of the pre-recieve hook to invoke the slug compile process under the Compilation heading.
