Bold and/or large, I thought (attached).

  bigcomma = {
\mark \markup { \override #'(font-size . 5) \musicglyph "scripts.rcomma" }
\breathe
  }

Cheers,

Yes, exactly. In 2.23, use \breathe and you're done. In 2.22, use 
\breathe and override its text to whatever you want, as you showed, if 
you want a more comma-like shape.


My understanding is that your "What's wrong with \breathe?" reaction was 
prompted by seeing the look of the \breathe sign in 2.23, which looks 
much like Molly's image, and I pointed out that it is not the same in 
2.22, but that doesn't contradict your reply.

So again, why not just use \breathe? Is there something else you need?

Hello!

I was wondering if there is a way to make a breath mark that is like a 
comma and in bold. I'm attaching a PNG file to show a small example, 
but I would like it much bigger.


I didn't see it under breath marks and caesuras or glyphs.

What's wrong with \breathe? Note that a breath mark will break an 
autobeam, unlike your example. You can override this, but isn't that the 
point of a breath mark, to separate things?


You could always just override the breath mark symbol as per the NR. Put 
whatever text mark you like.


\relative c'' {
  c2
  \override BreathingSign.text =
\markup { \musicglyph "scripts.rvarcomma" }
  \breathe
  d2
}
