git clone: Add --recursive to automatically checkout (nested) submodules
Many projects using submodules expect all submodules to be checked out
in order to build/work correctly. A common command sequence for
developers on such projects is:
git clone url/to/project
cd project
git submodule update --init (--recursive)
This patch introduces the --recursive option to git-clone. The new
option causes git-clone to recursively clone and checkout all
submodules of the cloned project. Hence, the above command sequence
can be reduced to:
git clone --recursive url/to/project
--recursive is ignored if no checkout is done by the git-clone.
The patch also includes documentation and a selftest.
