Signed-off-by: Alban Gruin --- I found this out when a friend told me he could not remember how to fetch submodules with git-clone, and when another one suggested `--recurse-submodule'. I checked the man page, and I was surprised to find out that `--recursive' is not mentionned at all. I did not modify the synopsis. So, this alias, although shorter than the "real" option, would still be somewhat hidden in the man page.
