LuaJIT didn't move to GitHub, they just have a mirror there.

The thing is they stopped numbering and publishing releases, it's all a rolling release without any name or number, so you cannot snapshot I'm certain version.

But OpenResty fork does create tag versions with date, so they can build or test against certain concrete snapshot frozen in time.

A git commit SHA is a number that identifies a version of the code.

Yep, but it doesn't serve as model of reference of date, order, patch or anything, and it's meaningless without the git database. It's OK as an immutable tag, but doesn't give you any additional information.

Even without SemVer, using a simple date versioning system (let's say 2024.10.2-patch4) gives you a lot of context.
