Description

I have alias for some Git commands:

# ~/.gitconfig
[alias]
	co = checkout
	br = branch
	ci = commit
	st = status
	ps = push
	unstage = reset HEAD --

From Nushell, after typing git co and tabbing, I expects to get list of branches in auto-complete, but I got list of subdirectories instead.

Research direction

No file or test is named in the issue. Start by reproducing completion for git co in Nushell with the aliases shown, then locate the Git completion entry point in this repository. Done means an alias such as co = checkout offers branch completion rather than subdirectories.
