I'm new to music publishing on linux, and have just transcribed a tune
with Lilypond for the first time.
Here's the piece I'm working on:

http://flet.org/tests/The-New-Way-to-Bowden.pdf
The automatic beaming seems not to be working well in the
second-from-last bar of each repeat section. The first time round,
I've used manual beaming to fix it, but I wonder if there's anything
I'm doing wrong to cause Lilypond not to beam those last 4 semi-quavers
in the offending bars.
You keep confusing LilyPond with all your \partial statements. Use
\partial only at the beginning of the piece and everything should work
fine.
And also, I'm not sure of the correct musical terminology here, but I'd
like to mark each repeated section with a number or letter - "[1]" or
"[a]" - displayed above the stave at the start repeat bar-line.
Letters would probably make the most sense in the folk music context
I'm working in. But I couldn't find how I might do this in the
documentation... any advice?
Read about "rehearsal marks" in the documentation.
An additional comment about your file: Why not use the
builtin support for repeats in LilyPond? The start of your
piece could be written as
\score {
\relative c'' {
\set Score.markFormatter = #format-mark-numbers
% [1]
\time 4/4
\clef treble
\key a \major
\partial 4 e
\mark \default
\repeat volta 2{
cis2 b4 a
cis8 d e4 fis8 gis a4
cis,2 b4 a
cis b b e \break
cis2 b4 a |
cis8 d e4 fis8 gis a4
b, cis8 d e d cis b
cis4 a a \break }
% [2]
\mark \default
\repeat volta 2 {fis'8 gis

Many thanks,
