That is because the patch that does this is still in the making ;-)

The cover letter should have mentioned it, but we talked about making push
pretty symmetric to fetch:

- Use "--no-recurse-submodules" if you don't want submodules to be pushed
  (we added that right now so users can disable the behavior the second
  commit introduces)
- Use "--recurse-submodules=on-demand" to push only those submodules where
  new commits have been recorded in the superproject's refs to be pushed
- Use "--recurse-submodules" to unconditionally push everything in the
  submodules too
- Make the default configurable by a "push.recurseSubmodules" option

We'll need another round to discuss how to handle private submodules which
were never intended to be pushed, but I think the general idea of having
fetch and push use similar options makes sense, no?
