This means that dpkg-buildpackage expects to be inside of a 
Git repository when building the package.  It looks like 
you're using a tarball export of a specific Git rev.

You can work around it by using the following magic:

  $ rm -rf debian/source
  $ sed -i s/1-1/1/ debian/changelog

And then:

  $ dpkg-buildpackage -uc -us
