Well, we already have @{upstream} ...

Yes, but like all of the @{} things, it's a modifier for the left-hand
side. So "master@{upstream}" is meaningful, and "@{upstream}" is the
same as "HEAD@{upstream}".

What does "master@{wtree}" mean?

Nothing, but then we already have @{-1} ;-).

That's actually HEAD reflog.

Yes, but neither HEAD@{-1} nor master@{-1} work. So we have one instance
of @{...} which is unrelated from reflog, and another which isn't a
suffix. @{wtree} would be both.

But both are about refs (upstream of a ref, or previously checked-out ref).
@{wtree} ain't.
