Message-ID
<20170201230753.19462-1-cornelius.weig@tngtech.com>
From: Cornelius Weig <cornelius.weig@tngtech.com>

Add documentation for the `--recurse-submodules=only` option of git-push. The feature was added in commit 225e8bf (add option to push only submodules).

Signed-off-by: Cornelius Weig <cornelius.weig@tngtech.com>

Notes:
    This feature is already in 'next' but was undocumented. Unless somebody reads
    the release notes, there is no way of knowing about it.
