I often find that after recreating a Drupal site locally to do some testing that I have left CSS and JS aggregation turned on. This can be turned off easily enough via the performance page, but this often breaks the flow of what I am doing. As an alternative I use Drush to reset the values via the command line.
The Drush command variable-set can be used to alter any value in the variable table. The two values needed for CSS and JavaScript aggregation are preprocess_css and preprocess_js. To turn these values of we just set them to 0 like this.
This can be shortened by using vset, which is Drush shortcut for variable-set.
To see what the existing value of a variable is just the variable-get command. This can also be shortened to vget.
drush vget preprocess_js
As an alternative, if you just want to flush the CSS and JavaScript caches then use the cache-clear command (shortened to cc) with the flag css-js.
drush cc css-js
If you have anonymous page caching turned on then you might also need to disable that. This can be done by setting the cache variable to 0.
