How to rename remote branches if I only have "client access"?

Hello,

I have the following branches on my remote repo:

new_version master

I now want the "new_version" branch to be the "master" and the old "master" has to be renamed to the old version number (in my case 0.2.0).

How to do this? Currently this causes me much trouble as I can't delete the remote "master" repository as this is the "remote current repository"...

Thanks in advance

Manuel
