Heroku repo is empty

[alexzaitsev]

Firstly I'm sorry if this is my bad.
I started my blog with this handy tool but after that I wanted to change some code.
So I cloned heroku repo with command heroku git:clone -a appname as it's suggested in heroku docs.
What was my wondering when git told me warning: You appear to have cloned an empty repository.
Maybe you have some ideas? Would be great. Thanks a lot.

I think it can be this issue http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18751063/trying-to-heroku-gitclone-after-heroku-fork-yields-an-empty-repository
If I just clone this repository and use it as my source - will it work?

Not your bug.

Alex, did you find any solution for this ?
I'm having this same problem

@pratap234337 yeap.
Don't use Deploy to Heroku button.
Just fork this repo, modify files if it is needed and push to Heroku.
