Description of the issue
I have many connections configured in .ssh/config
When I use cmd::Cmder type of terminal autocompletions works, I print ssh, press Tab and see all names of connections. But if I use bash::bash type of terminal, Tab shows folders in current folder:
λ ssh
bin/ config/ LICENSE vendor/
Cmder.exe icons/ opt/ Version 1.3.24.236
My environment settings:
set PATH=%ConEmuBaseDir%\Scripts;%PATH%
set LC_ALL=ru_RU.UTF-8
set LANG=ru_RU.UTF-8
set GH=C:\Users\besta\Downloads\cmder\vendor\git-for-windows
set PATH=%GH%\bin;%GH%\usr\bin;%GH%\mingw64\bin;%PATH
How to reproduce
Add any connections to .ssh/config in home directory.

Start by reproducing the bash terminal behavior with host entries in ~/.ssh/config, then compare it with the working cmd::Cmder completion shown in the issue. Done means pressing Tab after ssh in bash lists the configured connection names instead of folders from the current directory.
