I really hope master does work, but where should I be using "master"?
In the above, I ask for "master.zip", (or tar.gz) and get "master.zip", but
master.zip contains one directory: "<username>-<repo>-<hash>". That is, it
helpfully converted my commit-ish into an actual commit hash. You can see what
they're thinking, I guess: that top level directory name is unique within
bitbucket, but it's not helping me. As I said, if you ask github for
master.zip, the top-level directory is named "<repo>-master".
At the moment the only solution I can imagine (apart from giving up on
bitbucket) is to patch luarocks so that maybe source.dir can be a pattern (oh,
hey, can it already?), or maybe if source.dir is blank and there's only one
top-level directory in the zip, then that's where it looks for what it's
looking for. I haven't actually looked at the relevant bit of the luarocks
source yet, so I don't know how tricky that might be.
