Ah yes, the terrifyin' equation: repeats + spanners = mayhem. When you
use \alternative, the music doesn't actually bifurcate; as far as
LilyPond cares, the second ending comes immediately after the first.
So if you want something to bridge across both endings, you have to
fake it.
Here's the trick for a half-open (backwards-L-shaped) pedal bracket:
\once \override Staff.PianoPedalBracket.edge-height = #'(0.0 . 1.0)
In a complete example:
\version "2.17.97" % should work for any 2.17+
\new Staff \transpose c c' {
\set Staff.pedalSustainStyle = #'bracket
| c2 c2
\repeat volta 2 {
| c2 c2
| c2 c2\sustainOn
}
\alternative {
{ | c2 c2\sustainOff }
{
\once \override Staff.PianoPedalBracket.edge-height = #'(0.0 . 1.0)
| c2\sustainOn c2\sustainOff
}
}
| c2 c2
}
