    the only thing this does is add “–recursive” to every git clone invocation

    
git() {
  if [ "$1" = clone ]; then
    shift
    set -- clone --recursive "$@"
  fi
  command git "$@"
}

      same for gh (github cli)

      gh() {
  if [[ "$1" = repo && "$2" = clone ]]; then
    shift
    shift
    set -- repo clone "$@" -- --recursive
  fi
  command gh "$@"
}
