title: Git Pushing a branch to heroku
body: <p>I am very new to git but I need to use it for one of my projects. A few days ago I created a local branch for the project and started working on (the new branch) it locally. Now I want to be able to push this new branch of the project to heroku. </p>
  
  <p>I saw that the way to do it is to</p>
  
  <pre><code>git push heroku branchname
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I tried doing that but I only get</p>
  
  <pre><code>Everything up-to-date
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>So I assume it was already pushed to heroku and checked it out only to find out that nothing changed. The new features are missing still. The two local branches share the same heroku's repository.</p>
