Hi Hisham,

Maybe the rockspec is mirrored, but it still points to the source.tar.gz on
Github. For example:

*http://luarocks.org/repositories/rocks/busted-2.0.rc0-0.rockspec
<http://luarocks.org/repositories/rocks/busted-2.0.rc0-0.rockspec>*

package = 'busted'
version = '2.0.rc0-0'
source = {
  url = '*https://github.com/Olivine-Labs/busted/archive/v2.0.rc0.tar.gz
<https://github.com/Olivine-Labs/busted/archive/v2.0.rc0.tar.gz>*',
  dir = 'busted-2.0.rc0'
}
...

Like I mentioned before, I think this is an issue unique to me (and my
company's proxy/SSL interception).
I was able to go to the source url from a browser and download it, but when
I tried to install it directly from luarocks I got this:

>luarocks install busted
Installing http://luarocks.org/repositories/rocks/busted-2.0.rc0-0.rockspec.
..
Using http://luarocks.org/repositories/rocks/busted-2.0.rc0-0.rockspec...
switching to 'build' mode
*[5 or 10 minutes elapse before it times out.]*
Error: Error fetching file: Failed downloading
https://github.com/Olivine-Labs/busted/archive/v2.0.rc0.tar.gz

Same thing when installing from rocks.moonscript.org (since it's still
trying to fetch the same v2.0.rc0.tar.gz from github).
Turning verbosity *on* didn't reveal anything, but I'm not too concerned
since I have a workaround.

Thanks,
David
