It is not a default in a sense where it control the behaviour of a git
command. git pull just does not do anything to subprojects and you use
a separate command (git-submodule update, I believe) to update them.

That said, I never used the git-submodule, nor did I have an urge to.
As I said, I find it convenient enough as it is with git-add and
git-diff, checking out the subproject as needed. Have to be careful
about "git commit -a" (which I almost never use anyway) and haven't
had conflicts yet.
