[PATCH v3] pull: Document the "--[no-]recurse-submodules" options

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In commits be254a0ea9 and 7dce19d374 the handling of the new fetch options
"--[no-]recurse-submodules" had been added to git-pull.sh. But they were
not documented as the pull options they now are, so let's fix that.
