Deploy a GitHub branch using heroku CLI

Question

I want to do this action:

using Heroku CLI.

If I have the remote git on my computer I can do git push my-heroku-remote master

But because my heroku app is already connected to the git project, I find this approach redundant.

Any ideas?

Answer 1

I prefer the GitHub auto-deployment over the git push heroku master because it works great with a GitHub Flow (Pull Requests to master). But if you would rather do manual deployments to Heroku from your dev machine you can fetch and push:

git fetch origin master:master
git push heroku master:master

(Assuming the GitHub remote is named origin and the Heroku remote is named heroku.)
