fatal: Not a git repository ... error message
You need to do a git init
in your project to initialize a git repository. You can see heroku configuration in the following link git remote doesn't seem to be working at all.
This is really really late but you should try this:
heroku labs:enable user-env-compile
run that in the console and then update your repo. Then push to github... Then push to heroku. Good luck
Compiling the assets locally then push to heroku worked for me.
