You need a bit of Scheme, the Lilypond manuals and the Guile manual.
Try something like this:

%% ---- cut here ----->8

\version "2.11.43"

revision = #"$Revision: 1.2 $"

today = #(strftime "%Y-%m-%d" (localtime (current-time)))

\paper {
  oddFooterMarkup = #(ly:format "Compiled ~a by ~a (~a)"
                                today (cuserid) revision)
}

\score {

  \context Score <<
    \relative c'' { c c c c }
  >>
  \layout {}
 }

%% ---- cut here ----->8

Cheers,
