Add `recurse` option in config about gitman HOT 5 OPEN

I see some overlap to #128

Do you have a use case for circular dependencies?

from gitman.

My particular use case is for avoiding circular dependencies (which admittedly, is bad practice to begin with). However, I think the recurse field would be useful just as a way of controlling whether to pull another level of dependencies, whether they're circular or not.

As an aside: I suppose the ——depth CLI flag should override the recurse field, if they both are used.

Yeah, I'm just trying to understand how common this situation is to warrant a feature to prevent it. 😄

Good point @daniel-brosche. I think that resolve: flat would meet my need here. This issue can probably be closed in favor of that.
