In the german user manual (I assume in other languages too), the following
seems incorrect to me:
chapter 1.4.1 Lange wiederholungen
"Eine einfache Wiederholung mit einer Alternative:

   \repeat volta 2 { c4 d e f | }
   \alternative {
     { c2 e | }
     { f2 g | }
   }
   c1

   [image of music]"
In the image it shows the c1 as the last note. However, if this code is
copied into Lilypond, an error is reported, and no c1 is engraved at all. I
had to change the code to:
" Eine einfache Wiederholung mit einer Alternative:

   \repeat volta 2 { c4 d e f | }
   \alternative {
     { c2 e | }
     { f2 g |
     c1}
   }

   [image of music]"

in order to get the result shown in the picture. As a beginner, it took
quite some time to figure that out...

Please have a look at section 1.4.1 (interesting - the same section) in the Learning Manual. As you will see, this say that all examples are likely to need surrounding with {} or \relative{}.
