This is probably a stupid suggestion, but since you're only likely to
have a single local branch corresponding to a particular remote
branch, the easiest answer is to rename your local branch to have the
same name :)

Otherwise, what you probably want is:

   git push origin localbranchname:remotebranchname

You can also delete a remote branch:

   git push origin :remotebranchname

Have fun,
