If nobody has yet cloned your updated remote repo, you can:

git reset --hard HEAD~
git push --force

That will force the local and remote history to discard the latest commit.
(Check first with a git fetch that no new commits had been pushed since your incorrect commit)

If a new history isn't an option, then a git revert is more secure, and will result in a new commit canceling the previous one: you can then push that new commit.
