In the example below, Lilypond doesn't count the initial partial bar when
numbering the bars, but the partial bars at the end of the first repeat and
beginning of the second repeat each get their own bar number. Commercial
scores I have with this repeat structure treat these two bars as though they
are one for the purposes of numbering the succeeding bars. To get the same
numbering in Lilypond I have to explicitly set the bar numbering at the
beginning of the second repeat.

I had a look in Gould but couldn't see any recommendation for how the bars
should be numbered in this situation.
Hi Nick,

If you do not change the measure length at the end of the first volta
and at the beginning of the second one you get the correct output,
AFAICS.

Thanks. That definitely seems the best solution. I was fixated on putting bar checks everywhere and didn't think of that.

Nick
