If someone makes a review on github (as opposed to a simple comment) I believe the state of the code as it was when that review as made can be viewed by hitting the “View Changes” button next to that review in the timeline.

If the original and modified patches were posted in proper format to b.p.o., then one could hit [review] to start Rietveld and request a side-by-side diff of the two versions.  This is perfect for reviewing responses to comments, especially those made in-line.  For this issue, Martin made about 20 inline comments.
