$ionicHistory.clearCache() now returns promise so you can ensure cache is cleared …

[abcd-ca]

Enables promise chaining. Otherwise in the example below, cache would not be clear before $state.go call and app.home would not update.

Example:

// In PreferencesCtrl:
$scope.clearCache().then((function() {
  return knetAccountHelper.updateSettings('preferences');
})).then((function() {
  return $state.go('app.home')
}));

Note, app.home is caching its view by default (I have not set cache:false in its state definition). In the scenario above, I want app.home to be cached in most cases except after leaving my preferences view which affects what is displayed at app.home.
