The last time I needed a branch deleted I needed to contact an admin
(filed a bug against Community/Gerrit) as I think some Gerrit
attributes manage the ability to do this.
You could also request permissions to delete branches if you
think this might be a frequent occurrence.
See http://gerrit.googlecode.com/svn/documentation/2.1/access-control.html#category_pHD
