Yes, that's what I see: most of the commits have a /trunk URL except
the last one has a /tags/TagX URL.

When the next commit happens on master (I don't have svn commit access
on the svn repo to try it myself), will git svn automatically track
master->trunk again? Or is there something I need to change to tell it
"master tracks svn's /trunk"? I normally do git svn fetch and git svn
rebase (while on master, I do all my own commits on a separate
branch).

Thanks, I'll build that and try it out. That sounds like what was confusing me.
