'origin/develop' does not appear to be a git repository. Could not read from remote repository

Question

New to git. I cloned a repo to local, create a branch on the local, changed and add some files, committed the change, and try to pushed it back to the remote using the following sequence of commands and got errors. Could someone point out what the reason that caused the error?

bash-4.4$ cd /home/abc/M3-release4checkin
bash-4.4$ git clone https://bitbucket.agile.com/scm/proj1/repo1.git
bash-4.4$ cd repo1/frontend
bash-4.4$ pwd
/home/abc/M3-release4checkin/repo1/frontend

bash-4.4$ git status
On branch develop
Your branch is up to date with 'origin/develop'.

nothing to commit, working tree clean

bash-4.4$ git checkout -b M3-release-frontend
Switched to a new branch 'M3-release-frontend'

bash-4.4$ cp -r ../../{security,utils,sample_responses,sample_trades,sa_trade_archive,sa_trade_data} .

bash-4.4$ git add --all

bash-4.4$ git commit -m "CHG#-1625: Milestone3 release (frontend)"
[M3-release-frontend d771fb7] CHG#-1625: Milestone3 release (frontend)

After doing this, you may fix the identity used for this commit with:

bash-4.4$ git push --set-upstream origin/develop M3-release-frontend
fatal: 'origin/develop' does not appear to be a git repository
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

I was added as one of the "Admin" of the Repository (BitBucket).
