Note that git-switch.txt states that
	Using `--recurse-submodules` will update the content of all
	initialized submodules according to the commit recorded in the
	superproject.
but actually only 'active' submodules will be updated.

Should I also update the doc? It is already stated in `gitsubmodules(7)` that only 'active' submodules are considered for recursion.
