Re: repeat syntax

[Mats Bengtsson]

There's no difference. As far as I can recall, it has never been necessary
to have quotes in this particular situations, but there are some other cases
where quotes are necessary, for example if you want to name a context
and the name has spaces or digits in it:

\new Staff = "violin 2" {c''}

You can find the same kind of confusing mix of quoted and non-quoted strings
in the manual when it shows how to add or remove engravers from a context,
for example.
