Breathing signs are available in different tastes: commas (default), ticks, vees and “railroad tracks” (caesura).

<lilypond version="2.24.0">
\new Staff \relative c'' {
\key es \major
\time 3/4
% this bar contains no \breathe
<< { g4 as g } \\ { es4 bes es } >> |
% Modern notation:
% by default, \breathe uses the rcomma, just as if saying:
% \override BreathingSign.text = #(make-musicglyph-markup "scripts.rcomma")
<< { g4 as g } \\ { es4 \breathe bes es } >> |

% rvarcomma and lvarcomma are variations of the default rcomma and lcomma
% N.B.: must use Staff context here, since we start a Voice below
\override Staff.BreathingSign.text =
\markup { \musicglyph "scripts.rvarcomma" }
<< { g4 as g } \\ { es4 \breathe bes es } >> |

% vee
\override BreathingSign.text = \markup { \musicglyph "scripts.upbow" }
es8[ d es f g] \breathe f |

% caesura
\override BreathingSign.text =
\markup { \musicglyph "scripts.caesura.curved" }
