I don't know whether this is the approved way, but Denemo uses this
syntax
\set Timing.measurePosition = #(ly:make-moment -1/2)
to indicate that the second time bar is only half a bar. (This example
is for half a bar in 4/4 time).
I think for hand-written LilyPond you should be using the \repeat
volta ... {} \alternative {} etc style syntax (the only reason Denemo
doesn't output that by default is that often the users do not look at
the LilyPond and then get in a mess through failing to open and close
the repeat).
