Hi,

it's hardcoded in repeat-acknowledge-engraver.cc not to set the
'which-bar-property (i.e. the opening repeat-sign, taken from the
relevant context-property), if the user sets an own 'which-bar, i.e.
in this case: \bar "||"

So it's by design prefering the users choice ;)

use \bar ".|:-||" instead, see NR ;)
