That's what I thought at first... but what if I want to recurs/(or not) when
I have an includes attribute?

includes in itself doesn't automatically imply recursion. You only get
recursion when you specify it in the includes/excludes (with the "**").
See the manual on the includes/excludes mechanism. Therefore the extra
"recurse" attribute is meaningless.
(So a -1 for the recurse attribute;-)
