Adjacent double bars
Bagpipe music has it's own conventions where each section or part of a tune
is enclosed in either repeat bars or what I call double bars (\bar ".|" and
\bar "|."). The end of a part usually coincides with a line break. I have a
problem with this and find that adjacent barlines with a break in between
get overridden and one of the bar lines is eliminated. I have tried using
\bar "||" instead but this does not help. See below:
---
\version "2.18.0"
music = \relative c' {
\key c \major
\time 4/4
\bar ".|:"
%Part 1
\repeat volta 2 {
\partial 8 a8
a4. a8 b4. b8
c4. c8 d4.
\break }
%Part 2
\bar ".|" % this blocks the repeat sign at the end of part 1
e8 |e4. e8 f4. f8
g4. g8 a4.
a8 b4. b8 c4. \bar "|."
\break
%Part 3
\bar ".|" % this blocks the double bar at the end of part 2
a8 |
a4. a8 b4. b8
c4. c8 d4. \bar "|."
\break
}% end relative
\score {
\new Staff \music
}

What you need is \defineBarLine:
http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/bars
\version "2.18.0"
\defineBarLine ":|.-.|" #'(":|." ".|" ":|.")
\defineBarLine "|.-.|" #'("|." ".|" ".|.")
music = \relative c' {
\key c \major
\time 4/4
\bar ".|:"
%Part 1
\repeat volta 2 {
\partial 8 a8
a4. a8 b4. b8
c4. c8 d4.
\break }
%Part 2
\bar ":|.-.|"
e8 |e4. e8 f4. f8
g4. g8 a4.
a8 b4. b8 c4.
\break
%Part 3
\bar "|.-.|"
a8 |
a4. a8 b4. b8
c4. c8 d4. \bar "|."
\break
}% end relative
