The implementation we have in WikiTrust is that when you click on a word of a version, you are sent to the diff where the word originates.
We have two demos up, and we are adding other Wikipedias to these demos as our servers permit...
To see the demos, go to https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/11087and install the WikiTrust add-on. Then, you can browse the Italian or Portuguese Wikipedia, and it should work (it.wikimedia.org and pt.wikimedia.org).
Some notes on this demo:
It is slow, because there is some back-and-forth between UCSC and Wikimedia Foundation servers. If this were running at the WMF, it would be way faster.
Again, as it is not running at the Foundation, we are not notified of new edits. So sometimes, we don't have an analysis for the revision you request. In that case, we fetch what we need and we analyze the revision. You should be able to see the results of the analysis after ten seconds or so.

I was not able to find any examples. I think that such a blame and trust tool belongs in git, not in wikipedia because there are many other usages for it. mike

thanks, mike
Importing an article history into git for using git blame doesn't seem like a good method...
Well importing it just for blame is bad. I agree. I read about the
wikiblame.
my purpose is to port the wikipedia over to git...

So far all of the implementations of blame tools for the full history dump of a wiki do not have the features of an ideal blame tool.
Given an arbitrary string of text an ideal blame tool can scan Wikipedia's entire history - and ideally the history of all WMF wikis - and tell you the authors of that text.
The design of such a system is essentially a search engine where each revision is a page with an associated author. The engine works iteratively, first finding all page blobs (where a page blob contains all text across all revisions for an article) that contain all of the words being searched for, and then iteratively working forwards in time on the revisions of that article in an effort to find the earliest authors. This isn't a complete spec, but it gives the general idea.
