\alternative error...

[Marcos Press]

Hi List!

Can someone tell why the small fragment in the attached .ly file, gives these error?

####
$ lilypond rep.ly
GNU LilyPond 2.18.2
...
rep.ly:8:1: error: syntax error, unexpected \alternative

\alternative {
rep.ly:3:1: error: se han encontrado errores, se ignora la expresión musical

\relative c'{
error fatal: archivos que han fallado: "rep.ly"
####

Another curiosity is, if in the .ly file I write in diferent lines the { } an the music expresions of the \repeat, like these:

\repeat unfold 2 {
 c c
}

the file compiles with these warning and the pdf voltas results in one less as the warning said:

####
$ lilypond rep.ly
GNU LilyPond 2.18.2
...
advertencia: Hay más alternativas que repeticiones.  Se recortan las alternativas excedentes

warning: There are more alternatives than repetitions. The exceded alternatives are cut.

[...]
Enhorabuena. La compilación se ha completado satisfactoriamente.

Thanks for the help

Marcos
