[FR] option --index should enable --recursive #410

Closed genivia-inc closed 4 months ago

genivia-inc commented 4 months ago

It makes sense to implicitly enable option --recursive when --index is specified. Index-based search expects/requires recursive searching. If --index is specified with -d skip (skip directories) then an error message should be produced saying that index-based searching requires recursion.

I can't see any downsides.
