Guides: Copy a remote branch

Copy local_branch in local_repo to remote_branch in remote_repo.

git push {repo} {local_branch}:{remote_branch}

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

To actually copy a remote branch to a new name, first a local branch needs to be created and then pushed to a remote branch with a different name. For example:

git checkout -b temp-foo origin/foo
git push origin temp-foo:bar
git checkout -b bar origin/bar
git branch -d temp-foo
