Do you have the pristine-tar package installed?  I tried the same
build, and my log differs as follows:

Yours:

> rm -f debian/ocaml-source-3.11.0+beta1.tar.bz2
>  dpkg-source -i.git/ -I.git -b ocaml

Mine:

rm -f debian/ocaml-source-3.11.0+beta1.tar.bz2
pristine-tar: successfully generated /home/ecc/packages/ocaml_3.11.0~beta1.orig.tar.gz
