Do you have the right remote set?

In your .git directory you can find the file config which should have something similar to

[remote "origin"]
    url = [email protected]:GITHUB_USERNAME/YOUR_REPO.git
    fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*

If that is not present you need to run something like

git remote add origin [email protected]:GITHUB_USERNAME/YOUR_REPO.git

To add the origin remote.

After that you should be able to git push / pull.
