Not really familiar.  You would need to change the normal repeat into
\repeat volta 2 {
  big series of notes
  \alternative { { some notes 1 } { some notes 2 } }
}

and how is
\repeat volta 2 {
  big series of notes
  \alternative { { some notes 1 } { some notes 2 } }
  another series of notes
}
supposed to look?

Mind you, the trailing \alternative is a pain in the parser and I'd not
mind moving it inside of the repeat, but it is not easy to design a good
non-unfolded look for trailing notes.
