Not included assets in rails app

Question

My application.js (in app/assets/) looks like:

//= require jquery
//= require jquery_ujs
//= require_tree .

the problem is that generated HTML contains only (not the tree):

<script src="/assets/application.js?body=1" type="text/javascript"></script>

what I expected is e.g. jquery.js, etc.

This problem occurs only on my Mac OS X development machine. (tested also on OpenSuse - unix machine and everything works).

What I have tried:

replace Gemfile.lock (now identical with unix machine except json ~> 1.8.2 instead of 1.8.0) and reinstall all gems:

     gem uninstall --all
     bundle install

change ruby version (tested 1.9, 2.1, 2.2)
googling around what is wrong with sprockets (without any success)
elaborating with rake assets:precompile --track

    ** Invoke assets:precompile:all (first_time)
    ** Execute assets:precompile:all
    ** Invoke assets:precompile:primary (first_time)
    ** Invoke assets:environment (first_time)
    ** Execute assets:environment
    ** Invoke environment (first_time)
    ** Execute environment
    ** Invoke tmp:cache:clear (first_time)
    ** Execute tmp:cache:clear
    ** Execute assets:precompile:primary
    Compiled application.js  (1ms)  (pid 20541)
    Compiled application.css  (0ms)  (pid 20541)

Ruby version 2.2, rails version 3.1.12. I could include Gemfile if necessary but bundle install works without any problem.

The solution (don't ask me why) was removing whole project folder and clone it again from git repository. (And yes "git status" was saying no change and everything-up-to-date).

The reason is probably some cache of rails on Mac OS X. Maybe someone can clear this behavior of webrick...
