You can use Osmium to extract a normal planet file from a planet history file with the data for any date you want. The osmium_range_from_history example program shows how to do this. As it is, it just extracts the current planet, but if you change the two 'time(0)' parameters of the range_handler you can give any time range or, if they are the same, any point in time.
