Of course you do: use convert-ly (as I did) to update it automatically.
That's one of the great benefits of open source music.  =)

The attached is an updated and transposed score. Note how I've put
   \transpose f a
on line 1004. That's all that was required**.

Hope this helps!

serious about making this file maintainable. I just mean that in order to solve 
your particular [transposition] problem, only the one command was necessary.
