You use "-r"

-r	Recurse into subfolders (include subfolders).  This option requires the -p or -P option.

-p|P	Store folder names.  A lower case p stores only the names of folders 
recursed (subfolders included) via the -r option, while an upper case P 
stores all folder information specified on the command line.
