Is your setting?:
PROMPT_COMMAND=__git_ps1
I believe you need to give 2 parameters in order to use it in PROMPT_COMMAND
mode.
In my .bashrc I have:
if [ -f ~/.gitprompt.sh ]
then
. ~/.gitprompt.sh
GIT_PS1_SHOWDIRTYSTATE=true
GIT_PS1_SHOWCOLORHINTS=true
GIT_PS1_SHOWUNTRACKEDFILES=true
PROMPT_COMMAND="__git_ps1 '\u@\[\e[1;34m\]\h\[\e[0m\]:\w' '\\\$ '"

These last 2 lines say: if 2 arguments are given, use pcmode. Otherwise you get
command-subtitution mode, which gives weird effects when being called from
PROMPT_COMMAND.
