The repeated music is fully written out, as many times as
-specified by @var{repeatcount}. This is useful when
+specified by @code{@var{repeatcount}}. This is useful when
entering repetitious music.

A single repeat without an alternate ending:

If there are more repeats than there are alternate endings, the earliest
repeats are given the first alternative.
A single repeat with one alternate ending:
@lilypond[verbatim,quote,relative=2]
-\repeat volta 2 { c4 d e f }
+\repeat volta 2 { c4 d e f | }
\alternative {
- { c2 e }
- { f2 g }
+ { c2 e | }
+ { f2 g | }
}

A single repeat with more than one alternate ending:
@lilypond[verbatim,quote,relative=2]
-\repeat volta 4 { c4 d e f }
+\repeat volta 4 { c4 d e f | }
\alternative {
- { c2 e }
- { f2 g }
+ { c2 e | }
+ { f2 g | }
}

Multiple repeats with more than one alternate ending:

-\repeat volta 3 { c4 d e f }
+\repeat volta 3 { c4 d e f | }
\alternative {
- { c2 e }
- { f2 g }
- { a2 g }

+@warning{If there are two or more alternatives, nothing should appear
+between the closing brace of one and the opening brace of the next
+in an @code{@bs{}alternative} block, otherwise you will not get the
+expected number of endings.}

@warning{If you include @code{@bs{}relative} inside a
@code{@bs{}repeat} without explicitly instantiating the
@code{Voice} context, extra (unwanted) staves will appear. See

-
If a repeat starts in the middle of a measure and has no alternate
endings, normally the end of the repeat will also fall in the
middle of a measure, so that the two ends add up to one complete

The syntax is

-@code{\repeat percent @var{number} @var{musicexpr}}
+\repeat percent @var{number} @var{musicexpr}

Patterns that are shorter than one measure are replaced by slashes.
@funindex tremolo
Tremolos can take two forms: alternation between two chords or two
-notes, and rapid repetition of a single note or chord. Tremolos
+notes, and rapid repetition of a single note or chord. Tremolos
consisting of an alternation are indicated by adding beams between the
notes or chords being alternated, while tremolos consisting of the
rapid repetition of a single note are indicated by adding beams or

-The same output can be obtained by adding
