There's a closed pull request on the void-packages repository

LuaJIT: update to git v2.1 branch
https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/36790

Description:
CC: @q66

The LuaJIT maintainer has not published a new version in 5 years, but he
has steadily added commits to the "2.1" branch, linked below.

https://repo.or.cz/luajit-2.0.git/shortlog/refs/heads/v2.1

Projects like neovim build against this branch or master due to the lack
of a recent release.
Furthermore, distributions such as Arch Linux and Debian Sid are
building from a commit rather than a release.

https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-community/commit/11473c3c786593b2438a865519d407c7a84ce0a1

https://salsa.debian.org/lua-team/luajit/-/commit/e06cbc6d2a61b253056214f5ed3f03ce661e31f9

The LuaJIT upstream maintainer has declined to cut a release, reasoning
"Releases are an antiquated concept".
