Well, \repeatTie doesn't take you very far into the ensuing phrase. And it doesn't swoop properly.

A fairly easy way in this case is to add a hidden grace note:
{ \hideNotes \grace b16\( \unHideNotes c8 g8 c8 \) | }

And you can use the grace pitch to adjust the starting height. This is usually necessary if you want to make the trailing fragment appear any way related to the (both-times) leading section.

wouldn't this wreak havoc in multi-stave music? i'm just thinking of say an orchestral string section where the phrasing slur is in the first violins and say the other strings only have rhythmic accompaniment. you'd have to add ghost grace notes in _all_ staves to avoid the problems mentioned in "Known issues and warnings" on the page about grace notes: http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.12/Documentation/user/lilypond/Special-rhythmic-concerns

the solution is neat though, i didn't realise you could hang a phrasing slur from a grace note. :)

given how well it works, defining a variable like PhrasingAdjustment = {s1*32 \grace s8 } and then just including that in all parts doesn't seem to be too much of a hassle. And wouldn't really wreak havoc.
