Recently I've written some choral parts and stumbled into the following issue. A phrasing slur starts in the repeat and should be repeated in volta 2, the secondo (see example). How do I add the slur there? Something comparable to the behaviour of a \repeatTie.
I checked the documentation regarding ties, but I found nothing similar there.
What is the recommended way to add such a repeated slur?
Some custom \laissezVibrer perhaps?
\version "2.24.0"
\score {
\relative c'' {
c4 c c c |
\repeat volta 2 {
d4 \( d d d |
\alternative {
\volta 1 {
c2 c2 \)
}
\volta 2 {
c2 c2 % Slur added here like c2 c2 \)
}
}
}
d4 d d d
}
}

EDIT:
Workaround 1:
Following these MuseScore ideas, a hidden note with a slur seems to be a valid approach. Plus the hidden note can be used for quick adjustments of the slur's height.
\hideNotes
e16 \(
\unHideNotes
c2 c2 \)
Output:

Workaround 2:
Comparable to the answer below, I use a phrasing slur with a custom \shape and a spacer. Needs some tweaking to get the curve right. But seems to be a flexible way to solve it.
\shape #'((-2.5 . 1.5) (-2.5 . 1) (0 . 1.0) (0 . 0)) PhrasingSlur
s4 \(
c2 c2\)
Workaround 2 is almost right, but the crotchet spacer s4 (or a hidden note) will throw out the timing (as can been seen in the following measure).
Instead, start the phrasing slur in the second volta on an empty chord <>:
\volta 2 {
\shape #'((-2 . 1.4)(-2 . 0.6)(0 . 0)(0 . 0)) PhrasingSlur
<>\( c2 c2\) |
}
