Recursive Submodules

[thorker]

Is it possible to extend the parameters to update submodules by --recursive or make it configurable?

try:

- uses: actions/checkout@v1
  with:
    submodules: recursive

I ran into this issue too, I think other configuration options should be updated into the README, since the action.yml only mentioned that the value for this input will be false, I assumed it will only be a choice between true or false to fetch the submodules

EDIT :
Also, is there an option to add an authentication options for the submodule fetching?
Cause I'm trying to update a submodule saved within the organization, but i'm running into access rights issues. Or is this supposed to be handled by the GITHUB_TOKEN generated?

EDIT
Found solution for adding token from #14 just incase you might need it too
