If you're willing to call the REST API, I think the SHA1 of each of the jobs is available from the REST API.
For my job "git-client-plugin", I queried with: http://localhost:8080/job/git-client-plugin/api/xml?depth=1 and saw that each build included the SHA1 for that build. You could then use those SHA1 values for the diff calculation.
