grafikchaos / Rails 3 asset pipeline production
Created June 8, 2012 02:12
precompile all CSS/JS assets
# == Precompile assets
#
# precompiles all CSS/JS assets in the app/assets b/c I'm lazy
# and I don't want to freaking update this every time we add/use
# sass or coffeescript files
#
# This strategy excludes the other default asset directories
# (lib/assets, vendor/assets) as well as any assets located
# in gems (which is okay b/c they can be called with an @import
# command or a manifest file)
