Well… yes! https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/lilypond.git/commit/?id=0fa6f042cccacb643d46781dde23617c71a9753e Man, I wish more people would know about that feature. I need to take a look at the docs because right now it’s only buried here: http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.21/Documentation/usage/command_002dline-usage > My preference for uploading parts is the other way around, i.e. the way > I did it.

I guess it depends how they work; if that’s for printing individual parts as two-sided booklets (for example with a spiral binding), your approach is indeed the most convenient. If that’s for downloading everything as quickly as possible and then being able to keep a copy at hand, mine works. (By the way, when it comes to “perusing 311 pages”, LilyPond also supports creating a table of content :-) Cheers, -- V.
