Just tried the git filter-branch solution, which got rid of the SRCINFO error,
however now i get a KeyError... I believe this may be related to the SSH public
key, however I'm not sure how I got that wrong. I just copied what was in my
.ssh/id_rsa.pub to the public key field in my AUR account. Thanks for the help.

Try:
pacman -Sy pkgbuild-introspection
git filter-branch -f --tree-filter "test -f .SRCINFO || mksrcinfo"
This will go through the current branch and, if no .SRCINFO exists in
a commit, create one and edit the commit (rewriting history). This is
part of what my script[1] does.
