It's been written up a few times. Here is one thread:

It is a straightforward procedure to replace a corroded brake line. It is exactly the same as doing it on any other vehicle. Check all the lines, because the corrosion will be where salt and road debris was trapped, but if they are corroded in one location then all of them are suspect. You need to have cutting and flaring tools, replacement lines and hardware, and an ability to bleed the system afterwards.
If anybody requires a detailed step by step procedure then it may be better to have a professional do it. Brakes are a safety system.
