[FEATURE REQUEST] Embed Github commit diff about emgithub HOT 1 OPEN

Sounds a interesting feature.

I believe the usage of the feature could be:

• embedding the whole commit diff: https://github.com/yusanshi/emgithub/commit/86f230a6bc37805b6186b355a41b075c123d97d9
• embedding a specific file in that commit diff (by clicking the filename shown in the following image): https://github.com/yusanshi/emgithub/commit/86f230a6bc37805b6186b355a41b075c123d97d9#diff-36cec0a19fd4229769211afcfd94c3aad3e3a98882aa0f68cdf9e836b0cbc4f8

Also the PR can be included as they are quite the same logic. For exampe: https://github.com/yusanshi/emgithub/pull/22/files.

And surely the github.com=>emgithub.com for quickly jumping should still work for this feature.

However the implementation may not be easy. Currently all the three existing modes are implemented by fetching the contents from GitHub and rendering them ourselves. We need write our rendering code but this give us more freedom for customization (e.g., code hightlighting style).

But rendering the commit diff seems somewhat complicated. After some searching, I think we can:

• use the third-party libraries, like diff2html.
• or, embedd the official contents by iframe. But it seems to have lots of limitations and I'm not sure whether it works well.

But currently I may not have the time to implement this (Maybe after serveral months). Anyway I'll mark this as help-wanted.
