That would be customized to your QA process. A generalized document would be too
vague. I am sure any process consultant could draft that up for you.
(disclaimer: I have been paid to do things like this before)

Maybe you could start by searching with things like
https://www.google.com/search?q=using+QA+with+Git or contacting Atlassian about
their QA product suite integration with Git.

Maybe you could find a process consultant to do it cheaper if you release it out
to the FOSS community?

The "nice" (read as less effort) thing about ISO 13485 is it does not have a
continual improvement requirement so as long as "defects" are detected and
remediated you are good. Please note git does not detect defects, git does not
remediate defects. What git does is ensure the approved artifact is unchanged in
any attribute to maintain the exact level of quality from first inspection of
that artifact for an unlimited amount of iterations. Git has built in "digital
signatures" on the artifacts stored in its repository.
