I have a changelog.txt file in my Rails project, that describes changes made in svn-commits. This file should be viewed as "Release Notes" file-type (then it's properly colored etc.). But it is in conflict with the Subversion-bundle (or Diff-bundle?), because temporaty diff-files generated by TextMate (when using Subversion-bundle) have now a .txt extension too, not .diff, as it used to have.
You could try the TabMate plugin. It's not a proper fix, but it might be a viable work-around for you. TabMate reads a special modeline (à la Emacs) from the first line of the file. This modeline can specify the file type, tab width, and hard or soft tabs on a file-by-file basis. So, if you have different types of text files all ending in ".txt", you can use the modeline to specify "diff" or "Release Notes" or whatever.
