You really think I'm going to convince entire fortune 500 companies to just switch to subversion? Why not implement cvs? My guess is the reason subversion support sprung up so fast was because it was easier to code. More companies use CVS. Yes, subversion is much nicer, however when dealing with 99% of the companies (if you consult) you will be using a CVS server. Rather than changing every existing company over to subversion, why not support something that is already the standard for version control? That's like saying Mozilla Firefox is superior to Internet Explorer and I should just force every company I consult for, and all their client base to switch to Firefox. It won't work like that. I like subversion too, but in consulting with hundreds of companies I've only found one that actually used subversion.

Instead of posting a $20K bounty for a duplicate of TextMate (good luck with that), perhaps you could find a version control consultant, and pay them $2K (1/10th) to help you migrate from CVS to Subversion...?
It will probably read like it, but I'm really not trying to be an asshole here. There are clearly features you would like to see, but they are not my features, and you asked for others' perspectives.
And there are work-arounds (CVS->SVN) that will bring you many other benefits besides integrated support in TextMate. I really do mean that as a helpful suggestion.
