There have been a few complaints on the mailing list that git-clone doesn't respect the `submodule.recurse` setting, which every other command (that potentially knows how to deal with submodules) respects. In case of clone this is not beneficial to respect as the user may not want to obtain all submodules (assuming a pathspec of '.'). Improve the documentation such that the pathspec is mentioned in the synopsis to alleviate the confusion around the submodule recursion flag in git-clone. While at it clarify that the option can be given multiple times for complex pathspecs. Signed-off-by: Stefan Beller <sbeller@google.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>maint
