No.

IMHO "bla@{yesterday}" should give you what "bla" pointed to, yesterday.
In that sense, the proposed reflog on "HEAD" makes perfect sense.

Since HEAD is a synonym for "current branch" everywhere else in git,
while .git/logs/HEAD will be a log of detached HEAD (plus branch
switches, I guess), I think the following makes perfect sense:

 "HEAD@{yesterday}" = current branch, yesterday
 "@{yesterday}"     = detached head (no branch), yesterday


Just my 2c
