Description

### Checks

- [x] I have searched [github.com/aws/amazon-q-developer-cli/issues](https://github.com/aws/amazon-q-developer-cli/issues?q=) and there are no duplicates of my issue
- [x] I have run `q doctor` in the affected terminal session
- [x] I have run `q restart` and replicated the issue again

### Operating system

Linux 5.10.236-208.928.amzn2int.x86_64 - Amazon Linux 2

### Expected behaviour

Git autocomplete should work normally within Amazon Q CLI sessions, particularly for commands like git branch --set-upstream-to where seeing available remote branches is especially helpful.

### Actual behaviour

When using Amazon Q CLI, git autocomplete functionality doesn't work properly for the git branch --set-upstream-to command. The autocomplete suggestions that would normally appear in a regular shell don't come through.

### Steps to reproduce

In a git repo, type `git branch --set-upstream-to ` tab. Normally, for git it should show origin or other remote. With q, it's only showing local branches and flags.
