heroku-releases-slug-ids

A node command line utility to copy Heroku slugs from one app to one or more other apps

This is valuable when you want the same code in different Heroku apps to partition your system (for example by country)

Documentation

This program is given the name of an application that you own on Heroku and [optionally] a release number

The default is to copy the most recent (highest) release

Release History

0.3.0 - fully functional for me ... not 1.0.0 as I haven't socialised this enough yet :)
