I understand that many internal changes in your work environment are
titled like "DOing X", but our convention around here is to label
them "DO X", as if you are giving an order to somebody else, either
telling the codebase "to be like so", or telling the patch-monkey
maintainer "to make it so". So I'd suggest retitling it to
ls-files: optionally recurse into submodules
or something like that. It is an added advantage of being a lot
more descriptive than "adding support", which does not say what kind
of support it is adding.
