In source.url, use "git://github.com/SimpleITK/SimpleITKLuaRock" instead of
"https://github.com/SimpleITK/SimpleITKLuaRock.git";. This should fix it!

> Also I’d appreciate any other input on this module.  Note that if you try
and build SimpleITK, it is a large project that incorporates a number of
other projects.  So I would only attempt to build it on a multicore system
with a decent amount of RAM.  Also I’d set MAKEFLAGS to “-j8” or however
many cores you have.  The rockspec uses a CMake build, so it will only
build on Linux or OS X.

Does this build a self-contained module that links all necessary libraries
statically?

If it doesn't, it would be more advisable to have the rockspec build only
the Lua module and specify any other dependencies of the library as
external_dependencies.
