Research direction

Start by examining how autocomplete-paths discovers and filters paths, using the repository's handling of .gitignore and the requested bower_components behavior as the entry points. Reproduce the issue with bower_components ignored by Git, then verify that it remains available to autocomplete without changing Git's ignore behavior.
