# `--capath`
Use the specified certificate directory to verify the peer. Multiple paths can
be provided by separated with colon (`:`) (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 is ignored.
