Description

In nvim/lua/plugins/blink-cmp-git.lua, the spec sets:

```lua
sources = { default = { "git" } }
```

This replaces blink.cmp's entire default source list rather than appending the git source to it. Since enabled gates the git source to specific filetypes, in practice only the git source exists in the default list — any lsp, buffer, or snippets sources added by LazyVim upstream could be silently dropped depending on merge order.

The fix is to use vim.list_extend or a per-filetype override instead:

```lua
opts = function(_, opts)
opts.sources = opts.sources or {}
opts.sources.providers = opts.sources.providers or {}
opts.sources.providers.git = { ... }
-- append rather than replace
end
```

Research direction

Start in nvim/lua/plugins/blink-cmp-git.lua and inspect how the blink.cmp sources configuration is merged. Check the relevant LazyVim and blink.cmp defaults before changing the configuration. Done means the git source is available where enabled without replacing existing lsp, buffer, or snippets sources.
