This snippet adds brackets with the number of repetitions above a bar or a group of bar. Very useful when dealing with minimal music, for instance. To summon it, simply use <code>\repeatBracket <~~/code><code~~>N</~~code><code> </code><code~~>music</code>, where <~~code~~>N</~~code~~> is the number of repetitions. Example: <code>\repeatBracket 7 { c'2 e' }</code>
