Is there a way to force regeneration of assets every request when using the Rails 3.1 Asset Pipeline?
I am having problems getting the system to pick up changes to files when using Less (less-rails) with a series of partials and mixin files. If I could just force the system to generation on each request I would be much more productive.

The asset pipeline provides a framework to concatenate and minify or compress JavaScript and CSS assets. It also adds the ability to write these assets in other languages such as CoffeeScript, Sass and ERB. Prior to Rails 3.1 these features were added through third-party Ruby libraries such as Jammit and Sprockets.
To compile your assets locally, run the assets:precompile task locally on your app. Make sure to use the production environment so that the production version of your assets are generated. A public/assets directory will be created. Inside this directory you'll find a manifest.
The clean it removes the old versions of the precompiled assets while leaving the new assets in place. Show activity on this post. rake assets:clean removes compiled assets. It is run by cap deploy:assets:clean to remove compiled assets, generally from a remote server.
To force a complete regeneration of all assets use:
rake assets:clobber assets:precompile Very handy when asset_sync isn't playing fair with you...
I know this may not help you, but hopefully it will make it easier for someone else to find the answer.
