| Maximum time in seconds that you allow curl's connection to take. This only |
| limits the connection phase, so if curl connects within the given period it |
| will continue - if not it will exit. Since version 7.32.0, this option |
| accepts decimal values. |
| |
| The "connection phase" is considered complete when the DNS lookup and |
| requested TCP, TLS or QUIC handshakes are done. |
| |
| The decimal value needs to provided using a dot (.) as decimal separator - not |
| the local version even if it might be using another separator. |
