I would have were I certain that it wasn't user-error last time. I took
a few minutes this time to verify precisely what I saw and reproduce it.

$ git show-ref | grep master

so, nothing obviously amiss here.

> Perhaps you have ".git/master" by mistake?

oops.

$ find .git -name master
.git/master
.git/refs/heads/master
.git/refs/remotes/kyle/master
.git/refs/remotes/origin/master
.git/refs/remotes/otc/master
.git/logs/refs/heads/master
.git/logs/refs/remotes/fdo/master
.git/logs/refs/remotes/kyle/master
.git/logs/refs/remotes/origin/master
.git/logs/refs/remotes/otc/master

So, I think that explains where the ambiguous master came from.  Seems
like rebase should be able to bail out before breaking things though.
