Having the POC pdf files would be interesting (together with a plain invalidly signed pdf). I don't even know if these pdf readers check signatures: okular, evince, mupdf, qpdfview, sumatra.

I quick test with strace and git shows that git doesn't use scp for handling ssh remotes. I suspect that git is hardened against similar attacks (a malicious server dropping files into .git/hooks would be worrisome).
