If you know the last sha1 the branch was at, you can do this fairly easily
from your own clone (if it has the commits where the branch was at).
> git branch newbranch <sha>
git push origin newbranch:master
You can probably dig up the sha from the github event log, or you could dig
around in the reflag of the repo you had been pushing from:
git reflog show master
