-When alternate endings are added to a repeat that begins with an
-incomplete measure, it becomes necessary to set the
-@code{Timing.measureLength} context property manually, in the
-following specific places:
-
-@itemize
-@item
-at the start of any incomplete measures in the @code{\alternative}
-block, which normally occur at the end of each alternative, except
-(in most cases) the last.
-
-@item
-at the start of each alternative, except the first.
