dav put

put [-pcR] [-k <key>] [-L <lock>] <url> <file>

Uploads a file or a directory. When uploading a file while the url points to an existing collection, a resource inside this collection with the file's name is created. When the url points to a non-existing resource, the resource is created.

When uploading a directory, you need to specify the -R option. It uploads all files in the directory to the specified url, but it does not create a collection for the directory itself. You may use dav mkdir to create this collection beforehand.
