For me it fails at this point.

  fatal: The upstream branch of your current branch does not match
  the name of your current branch.  To push to the upstream branch
  on the remote, use

      git push . HEAD:master

  To push to the branch of the same name on the remote, use

      git push . HEAD

  To choose either option permanently, see push.default in 'git help config'.

  To avoid automatically configuring an upstream branch when its name
  won't match the local branch, see option 'simple' of branch.autoSetupMerge
  in 'git help config'.

What's your configured push.default?

This works fine here.
