Haris,
I've only made experimental changes to my copy of the Perforce bundle. I don't mind at all blowing them away in order to set things up "properly" so I can create patches.

Hi Daryl,
I think before we offer any advice, there's one important thing weneed to clear up. Have you already made changes to your copy of the Perforce bundle?
Simply put, changes that you make to a bundle via the bundle editor are written in ~/Library/..... Normally they are written as delta files, if the corresponding commands are there. If you've already done changes, then you should look at the actual files in your bundle, by opening it as a folder, and see if they are delta files (they will have a key in the XML tree with name "isDelta" if I recall.
Got to go teach now, more later or from someone else in the meantime ;)

I want to contribute some patches to the Perforce bundle, but I need to clear up some confusion first...
http://macromates.com/wiki/Bundles/HowToContribute tells me to start by checking out the latest version into ~/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles. (That's where the Perforce bundle is now, which I downloaded using the GetBundle bundle.)
But http://macromates.com/textmate/manual/bundles#installing_a_bundle tells me to create /Library/Application\ Support/TextMate/Bundles/ and install them there.
Then I'm further confused by the following in http://macromates.com/wiki/Bundles/HowToContribute:
Normally it is not recommended that you checkout bundles to the above location [~/Library/..., I guess], because when you change the bundle items from inside TextMate, it saves changes to ~/Library/…, potentially leading to merge conflicts if the files are updated in an incompatible way on the server.
If you already have done a full checkout of the repository to / Library then you can instead do a symbolic link...
So what should I do? Should I check out the Perforce bundle to /Library/... or ~/Library/...? Should I ignore the instructions to create a symbolic link, since I haven't done a full checkout to /Library/...?
