| Tells curl to use the specified certificate directory to verify the |
| peer. Multiple paths can be provided by separating them with ":" (e.g. |
| \&"path1:path2:path3"). The certificates must be in PEM format, and if curl is |
| built against OpenSSL, the directory must have been processed using the |
| c_rehash utility supplied with OpenSSL. Using --capath can allow |
| OpenSSL-powered curl to make SSL-connections much more efficiently than using |
| --cacert if the --cacert file contains many CA certificates. |

| If this option is set, the default capath value will be ignored, and if it is |
| used several times, the last one will be used. |
