CLI: add a `recursive` option
See original GitHub issueEnvironments:
- Prettier Version: 1.19.1
- Running Prettier via: CLI
- Runtime: Node.js v12.5.0
- Operating System: macOS Cataline 10.15.1
Steps to reproduce:
My request is about a recursive option.
$ prettier --write * only fixes the first-level files and does not read any other files that are in sub-directories.
Expected behavior:
# Reads all sub-directories and first-level files and fixes them.
$ prettier --write --recursive *
Actual behavior:
$ prettier --write *

@sregg I guess your shell expands the glob, not Prettier. Try adding quotes around the glob.
Your command only works for top- and second- level files (files located in a sub directory).
