# Delete the old branch on remote - where <remote> is, for example, origin

# Or shorter way to delete remote branch [:]
git push <remote> :<old_name>

# Push the new branch to remote
git push <remote> <new_name>

# Reset the upstream branch for the new_name local branch
git push <remote> -u <new_name>
