Sorry for the little bit of necromancy replying here, it just happened to be near the top of the results when i googled this issue.

I was able to get this working in a similar manner to the way you work with the ssh-agent in WSL (I'm using the Ubuntu LTS version). Basically running

it was able to interact with the ssh-agent.exe setup.

Probably a bit more to it technically but it works. Went ahead and aliased `ssh`->`ssh.exe` and `git` -> `git.exe` and everything works as I'd expect atm.
