This is very likely because you didn't tell gbp how your upstream tags
look like. It usually expects tags of the form
upstream/<version>
but it can be configured via the --upstream-tag option. You can also do
this in your gbp.conf, see e.g.
https://github.com/agx/ldapsp/blob/debian/sid/debian/gbp.conf
where I'm using a setup that is very similar to yours.
