title: Asset Pipeline Cacheing CSS?
body: <p>I am working on a Rails 3.1 app. I have created an <code>application.css.scss.erb</code> file. The .erb is in the end because I want to load a variable from the config file as the color variable in the css:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$highlight1: #&lt;%= COLOR.highlight1 %&gt;;
  $highlight2: #&lt;%= COLOR.highlight2 %&gt;;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Everything works fine, but the problem I am having is that whenever I change a value inside COLOR.highlight1, it doesn't reflect the change until I go in to my css file and change something (i usually add some spaces and save it). Thats when I see the change. Clearly rails is looking to see if the file was changed in order to update the change. </p>
  
  <p>Is there any way that at least during development, this can be turned off and I can see the changes without having to also modify the css file?</p>
  
  <p>Any critique/opinions on my technique are also welcome</p>
