Okay, so you say "HEAD@{yesterday}" does _not_ give you what HEAD pointed
to yesterday, but "@{yesterday}" does?
Instead "HEAD@{yesterday}" looks up what HEAD points to _now_, and _then_
goes back to yesterday, finding out what that particular branch pointed to
then, _regardless_ what HEAD was then?
Oh my, that's convoluted.
