I did not understand the question.

What I meant is that luarocks clients without HTTPS support will be
able to get the code through the .src.rock file in the LuaRocks
repository.

If a user is worried about authenticity of .src.rock files and wants
to make sure they're getting the code from the original source, they
can install the appropriate tools (LuaSec, etc), audit the rockspec
themselves and then use the rockspec containing the https URL.
