This is misleading.  The command does nothing on the remote side, it
only changes the refs/remote namespace in your repository.  The purpose
is to change what branch the ref remote/<name> resolves to, ie. without
explicit branch name.

(The only command that manipulates the remote repository is git push,
and the plumbing beneath that.  To change HEAD in a remote repository
you need filesystem access to it.)
