Help: Create necessary local directory hierarchy
---
When used in conjunction with the --output option, curl will create the
necessary local directory hierarchy as needed. This option creates the dirs
mentioned with the --output option, nothing else. If the --output file name
uses no dir or if the dirs it mentions already exist, no dir will be created.

Created dirs are made with mode 0750 on unix style file systems.

To create remote directories when using FTP or SFTP, try --ftp-create-dirs.
