[web-devel] Announce: heroku package

[Greg Weber]

That's a good point that you don't have to deploy your source. Personally I
wanted to have my source code to be pushed to Heroku to back it up. What
about ignoring the dist folder, copying assets into there (or symlinking
back to assets), and having a separate git repo in the dist folder for
deploying? Or doing something similar with a deploy folder that the binary
is also copied into/symlinked from. Let us know what you come up with.
