The git-submodule(1) is inconsistent. In the synopsis, it says:
git submodule [--quiet] sync [--recursive] [--] [<path>...]
The description of the sync does not mention --recursive, and the
description of --recursive says that it is only available for foreach,
update and status.
The option appears to work, so the documentation should be
updated.
Tested with version 2.6.3.
