From: Magnus Homann Date: Fri, 01 Sep 2017 05:39:42 GMT Subject: submodule: --recurse-submodules vs. submodule.recurse=true Message-ID: I'm using git 2.14.1 on cygwin. Using --recurse-submodules, I can do 'git pull' and the submodules both get fetched and merged automatically. I was under the impression that setting submodule.recurse to true would have the same affect, without needing to write --recurse-submodules every time. But the docs seems a bit vague, and I don't understand the git code. Is there a way to config git pull to automatcially do a "--recurse-submodules" ? Thanks, Magnus
