 	Defaults to false.
+	When set to true, it can be deactivated via the
+	`--no-recurse-submodules` option. Note that some Git commands
+	lacking this option may call some of the above commands affected by
+	`submodule.recurse`; for instance `git remote update` will call
+	`git fetch` but does not have a `--no-recurse-submodules` option.
+	For these commands a workaround is to temporarily change the
+	configuration value by using `git -c submodule.recurse=0`.
 
 submodule.fetchJobs::
 	Specifies how many submodules are fetched/cloned at the same time.
