I think the logical progression would be

 - there are parts of __git_ps1 you want to reuse for your
   __git_ps1_pc; separate that part out as a helper function,
   and make __git_ps1 call it, without changing what __git_ps1
   does (i.e. no colors, etc.)

 - add __git_ps1_pc that uses the helper function you separated
   out.

 - add whatever bells and whistles that are useful for users of
   either __git_ps1 or __git_ps1_pc to that helper function.
