I made my own script, this is very basic and works for me in Ubuntu with 
transmission. Replace user:pass with the username and password you 
connect to transmission.

$ transmission-remote --auth user:pass -t `transmission-remote --auth 
user:pass -l|grep planet |awk '{print $1}'` -l
$ transmission-remote --auth user:pass -t `transmission-remote --auth 
user:pass -l|grep planet |awk '{print $1}'` --remove-and-delete
$ transmission-remote --auth user:pass -a 
https://osm.cquest.org/torrents/planet-latest.osm.pbf.torrent
$ transmission-remote --auth user:pass -t `transmission-remote --auth 
user:pass -l|grep planet |awk '{print $1}'` -ph all


Explanation:
transmission-remote --auth user:pass -l|grep planet |awk '{print $1}' 
will output the ID of the torrent. I'm only grepping on planet because 
that's the only planet torrent I've got, it would be better to know the 
whole filename or at least grep on .osm.pbf too.

The first command will display the planet file you're now downloading
The second command will delete it from transmission and remove all files 
with it
The third command will add a new tracker from the website. Because you 
want to seed the latest planet, this is easy.
The forth command will set the priority of the tracker on high. This is 
optional of course.
