  """Get commit history of given path and its dependencies.

  In comparison to get_history(), get_history_recursively also takes
  dependencies into consideration. For example, if file A referenced file B,
  get_history_recursively(A) will return commits of B in addition to A. This
  applies recursively, so commits of C will be included if file B referenced
  file C, and so on.

  This function is file type neutral. `parser_callback(filename, content)` will
  be invoked to parse file content and should return list of filename of
  dependencies. If `parser_callback` returns None (usually syntax error), the
  commit is omitted.

  Args:
    git_repo: path of git repo
    path: path to query, relative to git_repo
    after: limit history after given time (inclusive)
    before: limit history before given time (inclusive)
    parser_callback: callback to parse file content. See above comment.
    padding_end: If True, pads returned result with dummy record at exact
        'after' time, if 'path' existed at that time.
