This may not be the best place to ask these questions and you could
have considered using postgres-xc-general mailing list from the
Postgres-XC project site. Anyways, see my comments below.

There is quite a lot overlap. Even though Postgres-XC has changed many
files and added many other, there is still plenty of common code.

ISTM that's the right way, especially if you're interested in keeping
PG code as well. This way, you will avoid a lot of duplicates and can
also quickly do a "git diff" between files of these two projects. I
find that very convenient at times.
