I do believe so, yes. That, or an entry in packed-refs.

Overwriting internal files by hand feels a little too much like work
for my taste. I would have done something more like "git reset --hard
trunk" (or, if not on master, "git branch -D master; git branch master
trunk" ), but of course you can feel free to do things the hard way if
you prefer. :-)
