In my case I want to point to files which I want to re-use and those files are kept in a separate git repository. And in some cases, it's just to keep »read-only« files handy (e. g. papers, documentation, old files which I use to take snippets from).
Unfortunately, the new features of TextMate 2 haven't really made an impact in my daily routines. Perhaps I'm just being ignorant, after all I didn't get the real power of TextMate 1 either until I watched the screen casts.
So how have you adjusted your workflow?

I'm new to the TextMate community, starting in with TextMate 2 when it was
released as a public alpha. I don't own TextMate 1.5.
What are the key features, from the users viewpoint, added to TextMate in
version 2 (besides opening the source)?

So I'm a bit late to the TextMate wonderfulness.. I've been using the
30-day trial version for the last week, and got it pretty customized to
my liking. Project+, MissingDrawer, SVNMate, bundles, a few custom
Templates for my C++ projects, etc. Loving it.
Today I went out and got the latest TextMate2 compile from about 2 days
ago, I believe, and wow. That's a huge step backward IMO. No
"Projects" that I can see, just look at a Directory (which doesn't work
for me, my Directory Structure != Project structure). No support for
Templates either, it seems, which I just recently figured out and
_really_ love (great to just pull in a template of my base C++ class and
"fillin the blanks"). Plus lots of things I customized don't see to be
there anymore, or are buried in the new "tm_properties" file.
Basically, I'm trying to figure out what to do next. I was getting
ready to buy TextMate1, but if this is what TextMate2 is going to look
like maybe I should evaluate some other tools. Is TM1 still "alive"?
Or are users urged to start using TM2? Am I just really missing
something in TextMate2? I'm a C/C++ developer that also uses Arduino,
CMake, Python, and other stuff, so things like CTags, project-specific
environment variables, and true "Projects" are important to me.

Since updating this morning to r9361, I've had its CPU use spiking up into
the 180% range continually. It seems to be looking for regexp searches on
path names.
The source I am editing is shared across the network via SMB from a compute
cluster. I noted the release note item this morning about network share
code being touched.
Happy to send an Activity Monitor sample, etc, etc.
Is there a setting or preference I've missed that would allow symlinks shown
in the File Browser to act like a "normal" folder? That is, to have a
disclosure triangle button and unfold to expose its content?

If this is a duplicate message please excuse me.
In TM2{9359} I often open projects by dragging a folder into TM2. This puts
the folder and subordinate files into the file browser (sidebar), from
which I can open files for editing.
Recently the file browser shows only folders. It shows no files with a
single exception. If there is an ".htaccess" file, that file shows in the
sidebar. To open a file for editing, I have to open it one file at a time.
I can't open any files from the file browser because they don't show.
I can open files by dragging in one at a time or using open on a single
file.This started about the time the browser-on-the-right change happened.
I can switch the sidebar from left to right and back with no problem.
I tried downloading 9359 again. Same results. I tried some earlier versions
and got told "corrupted dowload".
I could sure use some help.

Hi,
When I pull a git repository, Textmate update automatically the
corresponding opened files (which is cool) but it does it silently.
Is there a way to get notified when a opened file is updated?
I found this old ticket about the same issue :
http://ticket.macromates.com/show?ticket_id=FFEB806B
Is it already implemented or still planned?
Thank you.
I'm sure this has been extensively discussed, and there's probably a place
for entering and commenting on feature requests, but I can't find it and
Google didn't help me. So...
I'd like to be able to style the File Browser area so as to match the color
theme in use.
It could be as simple as a light vs. dark mode preference. Or a dialog box
in preferences to pick the color of the background and the text. Or even as
elaborate as giving text color themes access to File Browser color
variables.
And, yes, this is a visual enhancement rather than a "feature," but this is
a Mac program, after all, and style does count. :)

I've set up my Avian and TextMate folders in Application Support as symlinks
to those folders on my Dropbox account. That seems to be working.
But is it safe? Can that setup handle TextMate 2 open on my Mac Pro and
MacBook Pro at the same time?
