That seems to be the alternative syntax for ssh URLs (gmane messed up the link). The man page of `git clone` lists the following supported URL types (plus some deprecated ones): * ssh://[user@]host.xz[:port]/path/to/repo.git/ * git://host.xz[:port]/path/to/repo.git/ * http[s]://host.xz[:port]/path/to/repo.git/ * [user@]host.xz:path/to/repo.git/ LuaRocks uses the protocol part of the URL to figure out which fetcher plugin to use. `git://` URLs use the `luarocks.fetch.git` module, `git+http://` uses `luarocks.fetch.git_http`. The latter just strips the `git+` part and passes the URL to `git clone`. Exactly the same code is used in `luarocks.fetch.git_https`, and could be used in `luarocks.fetch.git_ssh`. I don't think LuaRocks supports the alternative ssh URL syntax because it doesn't know which fetcher to use.
