IIUC: As in a separate thread here recently I, like some others, have
put all my structure in a separate variable which all the separate parts
use.
timing = {
\repeat volta 2 s1*8
}
vlnNotes = \fixed c'' {
[violin notes]
}
vlaNotes = \fixed c' {
[viola notes]
}
violin = << \timing \vlnNotes >>
viola = << \timing \vlaNotes >>
with all of the above in a file which is included in a file for each
voice/instrument which has
labeling information and other specific information such as header.
\include "musicFile"
...
\score{ \vlnNotes }
This enforces that all parts have the same structure.
Hope that makes sense,
Paul

typeset a score where some, but not all the parts have a repeat at the

As you may guess, I just found a missing repeat in one part of a piece
I have typeset, where I had carefully proof read all the original
parts against the LilyPond generated score, but hadn't proof read the
individual parts.
Obviously, there are many situations where this warning wouldn't be
desired, for example when you have different lyrics in the repeats, so
it shouldn't be triggered by default. Still, it would be a nice
feature to be able to activate from time to time.
