We already have
https://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/$githash
which is 20 chars longer than your proposal, but already much shorter
than the original.

I'm not -1'ing your proposal, but I at least find that one good enough.

FWIW it's bd easy enough to add such a forwarder if we want to. But it seems the enthusiasm for doing it is not great? :) Does anybody else have any opinions on it?
