Somtimes I would like to have two bars at the start of a repeat,
especially where there is a line break. In the sample below I get
only a plain double bar at the start of the repeat. If I uncomment
the line '\bar ".|:"' I get only the bar for starting the repeat, and
if the previous bar is at the end of a line, for example uncommenting
the "\break" line, I get no bar at the end of the line and the "start
repeat" bar at the beginning of the next line. Is there any way to
get what I want?

The \section command does what you need
(https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.24/Documentation/notation/bars#automatic-bar-lines)
song = { \key c \major \time 4/4 \relative c' {
c4 d e f
\section
%\break
}
\repeat volta 2 { \relative c' {
% \bar ".|:"
f4 e d c
}}}
