Ah, I see it now. Debian (normal, i.e. non-native) packages have a
version that looks like this: <upstream-version>-<debian-revision>.
Assuming that this is the first Debian release of ocaml-minisat 0.3,
then your version number should be 0.3-1. However, since your version
0.3 (without the dash, and the debian revision) it gets generated as a
debian native package instead, and git-buildpackage ignores your
upstream directory.
