I do use /once when appropriate, and defining a variable indeed helps

So it just the case that you want hairpins to extend over time
signatures? A custom engraver could automate that:
\version "2.22.0"
extendHairpinsAcrossTimeSignature =
#(lambda (context)
(let ((hairpins '()))
(define (extend-hairpin grob)
(ly:grob-set-property! grob 'to-barline #f))
(define (add-hairpin grob)
(set! hairpins (cons grob hairpins)))
(define (remove-hairpin grob)
(set! hairpins (remove (lambda (x) (eq? x grob)) hairpins)))
(make-engraver
(listeners
((time-signature-event engraver event)
(for-each extend-hairpin hairpins)
(set! hairpins '(
(acknowledgers
((hairpin-interface engraver grob source)
(add-hairpin grob)))
(end-acknowledgers
((hairpin-interface engraver grob source)
(remove-hairpin grob))
\new Staff \with {
\consists \extendHairpinsAcrossTimeSignature
}
\fixed c' {
| \time 3/4 g2 a8 \< b | cis'2 \! r4

Are you doing \once \override or just \override? A singular \override
will affect all Hairpins from that point in the music forward (or until
another \override or a \revert). Assuming you want this behavior for
all Hairpins across all staves, just do the \override at a suitably
global level.
% Top-level or within \score
\layout { \context { \Staff \override Hairpin.to-barline = ##f } }
If you need to scope this to a particular Staff, either use the \with
block or just \override as the first thing in the music:
\new Staff \with { \override Hairpin.to-barline = ##f } { ... }
% or %
{ \override Hairpin.to-barline = ##f ... }
Finally, if you need a mixture of Hairpins that either extend to the
note or stop at the barline, then you might want to define a helper
variable:
extend = -\tweak to-barline ##f \etc
\fixed c' { \time 3/4 g2 a8 \extend \< b | \time 2/4 cis'2 \! }

Extend all hairpins over time signature changes
I like to have hairpins cut through barlines, extending to the note that ends them on the first beat of the next bar, whenever there's a time signature change. Stopping short of the barline in this case, as is the default, leaves a bit too much space between the end of the hairpin and the dynamic symbol. I know that I can \override Hairpin.to-barline = ##f. But would it be possible to configure the default behavior to work as described, instead of spraying overrides everywhere?
