I have committed a few test text from my vim editor to a sample main branch.
When I use $cat (commit) to view various versions across branches, my editor simply clears as if I typed $clear.
Not able to analyze properties of text in git bash

You can use git show to see the content of a file in a different branch
git show somebranch:path/to/your/file
Or you can define a git cat alias
[alias]
cat = "!git show \"$1:$2\" #"
Which means you can type git cat somebranch path/to/your/file.
