We present a study on the magnetization, anomalous Hall effect (AHE) and novel longitudinal resistivity in layered antiferromagnet Co$_{0.29}$TaS$_{2}$. Of particular interests in Co$_{0.29}$TaS$_{2}$ are abundant magnetic transitions, which show that the magnetic structures are tuned by temperature or magnetic field. With decreasing temperature, Co$_{0.29}$TaS$_{2}$ undergoes two transitions at T$_{t1}\sim$ 38.3 K and T$_{t2}\sim$ 24.3 K. Once the magnetic field is applied, another transition T$_{t3}\sim$ 34.3 K appears between 0.3 T and 5 T. At 2 K, an obvious ferromagnetic hysteresis loop within H$_{t1}\sim\pm$ 6.9 T is observed, which decreases with increasing temperature and eventually disappears at T$_{t2}$. Besides, Co$_{0.29}$TaS$_{2}$ displays step-like behavior as another magnetic transition around H$_{t2}\sim\pm$ 4 T, which exists until $\sim$ T$_{t1}$. These characteristic temperatures and magnetic fields mark complex magnetic phase transitions in Co$_{0.29}$TaS$_{2}$, which are also evidenced in transport results. Large AHE dominates in the Hall resistivity with the conspicuous value of R$_{s}$/R$_{0}\sim 10^{5}$, considering that the tiny net magnetization (0.0094$μ_{B}$/Co) alone would not lead to this value, thus the contribution of Berry curvature is necessary. The longitudinal resistivity illustrates a prominent irreversible behavior within H$_{t1}$. The abrupt change at H$_{t2}$ below T$_{t1}$, corresponding to the step-like magnetic transitions, is also observed. Synergy between the magnetism and topological properties, both playing a crucial role, may be the key factor of large AHE in antiferromagnet, which also offers a new perspective in magnetic topological materials with the platform of Co$_{0.29}$TaS$_{2}$.
