Unselect selected lines on files or commits

[anthony-robin]

Currently, when we click on a line to highlight it, there is no possibility to unselect it unless we select another one or by removing manually the anchor added to the URL.

Maybe that could be a nice feature to add to refined github ?

When I accidentally select a line like that, I usually hit Alt + ← i.e. go back to previous page. It might not be what we're looking for but worth mentioning.

This would be very useful indeed. I've been bothered by this behavior too. PR welcome :)

Please also suggest the improvement to GitHub: https://github.com/contact
