Do'h, now I can see the idiocy that I was doing.

If I'm understanding this better,
$ git push origin master
tells git to push to remote origin, the contents of my master branch.

And then,

$ git push origin feature-work
tells git to push to remote origin to push the contents of feature-work branch.

Hence does not make sense to ask git to do "push origin master" while
inside feature-work branch.
