Description
Issue type
UX/Interaction bug (incorrect behaviour)
Description with steps to reproduce
If there is a courtesy time signature change at a repeat (under a 1st ending) and the 2nd ending ALSO has that same time sig, it is treated like a regular time sig change instead of a cautionary/courtesy.
