git module question

[Mauricio Tavares]

What is the equivalent of [1]

git submodule update --init

using the git [2] module? Would "update: yes" (the default) as in

- git:
repo: 'https://foosball.example.org/path/to/repo.git'
dest: /srv/checkout
update: yes

suffice?

Sounds reasonable to me. The important part for submodules is the "recursive" parameter which is by default set to yes.

Whether the git module implicitly uses --init on the first run I have never actually tried.
