Again, everyone is posting about me posting twice, I explained this, I resubscribed to the list with a different email address, and didn't realize the first message went through. It was a accident.

Yes, thanks this still doesn't solve any problems. Rather than spending an hour posting on a blog about how you hate feature requests, why not just implement the really good ones?. Especially Really Good CVS, Subversion, SFTP, Editing over the networking stuff. There is not one single good CVS client for mac, eclipse, zend studio, all of them suck, yet textmate "is the missing editor for the 21st century", Well in the 21st century almost every file is edited online and checked into a versioning system. And of course since the author wouldn't want to put it to a vote, (even though every single person using TextMate) would want CVS support built in... I guess we're just out of luck.
Court, why did you send the same post again? Isn't this the second time you sent the same email? The first time you sent the request someone answered you quite directly saying that SFTP and FTP were both something the next major version would likely have as Alan has said they are on his list.
And as has been stated your opinion of important isn't necessarily everyone else's. Nor is it necessarily the opinion held by even "most" people.
The current subversion support is more than enough for my needs and obviously its more than enough for most of the other people using it or we would hear more complaints. And we don't. That blog post was actually posted by someone else (I believe the author of BBEdit). The person was just pointing out (by providing a link to someone else's blog post) that your way of going about requesting wasn't likely to elicit a positive response simply because everyone has their own ideas about what is important and you aren't necessarily tapped into those ideas nearly as well as you may think you are.
I'm irritated that the only comments have been, about the actual comment an not the feature I'm requesting, or others have requested. If textmate really isn't interested in becoming the missing editor for the 21st century, then I'm going to post, a $20,000 bounty for several x-code developers to make me a near duplicate of textmate with full cvs browser, subversion, browser, sftp, and network connectivity and give it for free.
If you have that much money more power to you. But I can tell you, most competent programmers are going to need heck of a lot more money than that to motivate them. Good luck with that.
