I was given some galangal a couple of years ago, which is now thriving in my garden. Is there a best time/season to harvest galangal, and can one just retrieve a small portion of the rhizome as required, or is it best to dig the whole lot up and replant at the same time?

After some searching, it appears that you shouldn't harvest galangal until it is at least 4 years old. When it gets to that age, you should harvest in autumn or winter.
