Sorry, I should have been more specific.

The default values come from titling-init.ly, in my copy (2.18.2) this is
what I find:

oddFooterMarkup = \markup {
  \column {
    \fill-line {
      %% Copyright header field only on first page in each bookpart.
      \on-the-fly #part-first-page \fromproperty #'header:copyright
    }
    \fill-line {
      %% Tagline header field only on last page in the book.
      \on-the-fly #last-page \fromproperty #'header:tagline
    }
  }
}


So, to achieve what you were describing I would put the following code in
the \paper block:

oddFooterMarkup = \markup {
  \column {
    \fill-line { \on-the-fly #part-first-page \fromproperty
#'header:copyright }
    \fill-line { \on-the-fly #part-first-page \fromproperty
#'header:revisiondate }
    \fill-line { \on-the-fly #last-page \fromproperty #'header:tagline }
  }
}

Then, in the \header block, I would have to define the revisiondate
variable:

revisiondate = "6 August 2014"

HTH, Samuel.
