No, commits are immutable and their "name" is based on their contents.  
However, if you've fetched the current HEAD of SVN, you've already got a 
commit that corresponds (roughly) to the HEAD of SVN.

On my git-svn created repository, I have a special ref "git-svn" that appears 
to refer to the "HEAD of SVN" commit.  ("git branch -a" shows it.)  If that's 
also the case with you:

git branch -m master master.save
git checkout -b master git-svn
# Make sure you are seeing what you want.
git branch -D master.save

should get you to where you want.

Heck, "git reset git-svn" might work.
