This reminds me. I was surprised to find that the Diff bundle does not support using Xcode's opendiff. Is this just an oversight (either in the bundle or by me), or does no one care for opendiff?
The Merge Selected Files… uses opendiff. As for oversight/not caring: personally I am not too fond of opendiff -- I only have a dozen or so lines that are different, opening the full document and having to locate the differences in there, tends to be tedious.
In general it seems like it would be useful to be able to generically configure all the bundles to use opendiff where it makes sense to use it as a replacement for /usr/bin/diff. This would be settable via something like TM_USEOPENDIFF or some such. I know there's certainly times when I'd prefer to have the Subversion bundle diff for me using opendiff.
For the subversion bundle, you can set TM_SVN_DIFF_CMD to the diff command you want to use.
Though for opendiff I believe you need a wrapper script, due to argument incompatibilities.
