Is it possible to make git clone do git clone --recursive by default?

No, it is not possible, see:
Is it possible to override git command by git alias?
However, you can define a similar instead:
git config --global alias.cloner "clone --recursive"
then
git cloner http://localhost/yyy.git

Interesting. I had
alias glone="git clone --recursive" in my bashrc file but I think I prefer this. I didn't know you could alias git commands. Thank you.

@Sahand I believe that's not possible, actually: stackoverflow.com/questions/5916565/#comment6812824_5916565
