| # `--create-dirs` | |
| When used in conjunction with the --output option, curl creates the necessary | |
| local directory hierarchy as needed. This option creates the directories | |
| mentioned with the --output option combined with the path possibly set with | |
| --output-dir. If the combined output filename uses no directory, or if the | |
| directories it mentions already exist, no directories are created. | |
| Created directories are made with mode 0750 on Unix-style file systems. | |
| To create remote directories when using FTP or SFTP, try --ftp-create-dirs. | |
