Since --drop-dead removes all mention of the remote from the git-annex branch, including that its trust level is dead, the remaining info from the .git/config takes effect. --drop-dead could `git remote rm` but that won't help other clones of the repo that also have the dead remote. Instead, I think it may make sense for --drop-dead to avoid removing the uuid from trust.log, so it will still know this remote is dead. (Of course, you can easily deal with this locally by `git remote rm` yourself.) """]]
