One can't actually move a remote branch, but you can copy a branch and delete a branch, so…

Copy oldbranch in repo to newbranch. 

1

git push {repo} {oldbranch}:heads/{newbranch}

Ex: git push origin foobranch:barbranch renames foobranch to barbranch

Remove a remote branch: it’s all about the colon! 

1

git push <remote_repo> :heads/<branch>

Example: git push origin :heads/some-branch removes some-branch from the remote repo (apparently git push origin :some-branch works as well).

This works for removing a tag as well:

git push origin :sometag
