What happened to INSTALL.txt?
I pulled lilypond sources from git today, and while trying to figure out a botched configure invocation, I did a git clean -x -f, and now INSTALL.txt doesn't exist anymore...? I did a fresh git clone from git://git.sv.gnu.org/lilypond.git but same thing, INSTALL.txt seems to have gone missing? What am I doing wrong? T -- It said to install Windows 2000 or better, so I installed Linux instead.
RE: Strange behavior with grace notes
John,
This is a known issue.
To compensate place a spacer grace in each of the other voices/staves.

Subject: Strange behavior with grace notes
When the first notes of a piece are grace notes, if there are other voices, or
other staves in the piece, the grace note is set in a separate bar, and then
the time signature and key are printed again. I notice the same thing with
appoggiatura and accacciatura. I tried to make this example as minimal as i
could.
\version "2.18.2"
global = {
\key f \minor
\time 3/4
}
tenorI = \relative c' {
\global
c2.
}
tenorII = \relative c' {
\global
\grace {c16 des16} c4 des8 des8 c8
}
baritone = \relative c {
\global
\dynamicUp
c2.
}
\score {
\new ChoirStaff <<
\new Staff \with {\clef "treble_8"
} <<
\new Voice = "tenorI" { \voiceOne \tenorI }
\new Voice = "tenorII" { \voiceTwo \tenorII }
>>
\new Staff \with {
} <<
\clef bass
\new Voice = "baritone" { \voiceOne \baritone }
>>
>>
\layout { }
}
if I comment out the tenorI voice and the baritone voice the grace note works
fine. But if I uncomment either the problem returns.
Any light anyone can cast on this would be much appreciated!

Selective partCombine
The only orchestral piece I have set in Lilypond until now was for 12
strings and a couple of other instruments. I had 2 versions of the
strings material, one of which kept all of the parts on separate staves
for the parts, and the other which combined them on to fewer staves
(where appropriate) for the score. This worked tolerably well: I wrote
one version first, then copied and edited it to produce the other. In
simpler sections I could even make the necessary changes by using tags.
But I feel that there must be a better way. As I am now about to start
on a work for full orchestra, I have been experimenting with having
separate parts which can nonetheless be combined on to a single stave
using \partCombine and its cousins. For instance, I have:
instOne = {c'4 d' e' f' | g' a' b' c'' | d'' e'' f'' g''}
instTwo = {a4 b c' d' | e' f' g' a' | b' c'' d'' e''}
instScore = ?
The form of instOne and instTwo would be correct for the parts. I am
looking for a way of writing instScore so that it combines the parts on
to one staff in bar 2, while keeping them separate in bars 1 and 3.
(Obviously this would be senseless here, but imagine that each bar
represents a passage taking up a full page width or more.)
Is this possible? Or am I approaching this in completely the wrong
way?

Re: Strange behavior with grace notes
Please check the known issues in the notation reference:
https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.20/Documentation/notation/special-rhythmic-concerns
You must put grace skips in all staves when a grace note is at the start of a
piece.
HTH,

I don't know if this is the right way to do this, but it seems to work:
\version "2.20.0"
\relative c'
{
a'1 |
b1 \bar "||" |
\tweak Y-offset #-5 \mark "Hey!"
c1
}

Re: text under barline
Just out of curiosity (and because I moved from LP to Gregorio for all things Gregorian): What exactly is it that you miss in Gregorio that you hope to achieve with LP? The provided example chant is easily typeset in Gregorio and I‘m not aware that it is possible to achieve an acceptable result in LP. As I said, just asking.
