To answer my own question:
In repeat-acknowledge-engraver.cc is a comment and code:
/*
We only set the barline if we wouldn't overwrite a previously set
barline.
*/
SCM wb = get_property ("whichBar");
SCM db = get_property ("defaultBarType");
if (!scm_is_string (wb) || ly_is_equal (db, wb))
{
if (s != "" || (volta_found && !scm_is_string (wb)))
context ()->set_property ("whichBar", ly_string2scm (s));
}
}
Although I don't know C++, it seems to be pretty clear what happens
Cheers,
Harm
