No, you don't need a \partial to indicate that the last measure is not a full
measure. Don't think too complicated!
Repeat lines do not necessarily have to coincide with bar lines, and the last
measure of a piece does not have to be a full measure (and needs no explicit
indication).
For a better understanding and some examples, I would recommend LilyPond's
notation reference:

No need for that workaround. LilyPond supports repeats starting at any point
in the measure, not necessarily at a bar line...
Cheers,
