I'm unclear on what you want the git version of.  I can only assume it is
one of the lilypond source files.

In any case, if it something to do with the git commit version of a file,
you can get that from the command line, such as using something like:

 git log $file | head -1 | sed 's/commit //'



And then there is a way to execute a shell command from within lilypond,
and assign it to a variable.  Which I'm not familiar with, but I've read on
this list about people doing so.  I'd bet you could find that in the mail
archives.
