You have to first clone your repository.

git clone https://username@bitbucket.org/username/Homepage3.git

than move your folder(Homepage3) inside the cloned repository than use 'git add' command to add those folders and than use the commands to puse the updates.

git remote add origin https://github.com/myusername/Homepage3.git
git push -u origin master
