Following on from an earlier thread[1], I have a snippet, below, that uses a repeat to create a "D.C. al fine" structure.

The snippet throws two warnings: "cannot end volta spanner" that appear to be caused by the "\set Score.repeatCommands" line.

Whilst I could just bludgeon these unwelcome messages with ly:expect-warning, the conscientious bit of me is asking the list whether they can be eliminated without hurting lilypond's feelings...

\version "2.19.35"

\repeat volta 2 {
c''1
\bar "|."
\mark "Fine"
}
\alternative {
{
    % Treat the "B" section as a first-time bar, but
    % suppress the "|1." label:
    \set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta #f))
    c''1
    \bar "||"
    \mark "D.C."
}
{ } % There is no "second-time bar".
}

Some quick testing showed that using

\omit Score.VoltaBracket

instead of

\set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta #f))

did the same thing without the warnings. I can't speak for how this would affect scores outside your specific example, though.

HTH,

Abraham
