3.5 Filename extensions
You can use any filename extension for the input file, but if you do not
use the recommended extension for a particular format you may need to
manually specify the output format; for details, see Invoking lilypond-book. Otherwise, lilypond-book automatically
selects the output format based on the input filename’s extension.

If you use the same filename extension for the input file than the
extension lilypond-book uses for the output file, and if the
input file is in the same directory as lilypond-book working
directory, you must use --output option to make
lilypond-book running, otherwise it will exit with an error
message like “Output would overwrite input file”.
