If I type "git diff" I can escape from "more" filter, is white <END> at left corner and beep, even if I break by control+c

Press 'q' to quit from the pager. (Also, you can see a list of all
commands by pressing 'h'.)

That's not more but rather "less" -- a much more feature-rich pager
program which comes bundled with Git. Contrary to more, it's able to
page up as well as down, search through the text in both directions,
wrap/unwrap long lines etc. See this [1] for a starter.
