The upper margin of the .pdf files I create using latexmk.pl through Textmate are too small. I find manually running dvipdfm in the shell fixes this problem. I've see email on this board indicating that there is an updated LaTeX bundle. (http://article.gmane.org/gmane.editors.textmate.general/22383/match=latexmk) I want to try this updated bundle to see if it fixes my problem, but I can't figure out how to update my LaTeX bundle. I've tried the following svn paths:
svn list http://macromates.com/svn/Bundles/trunk/Bundles/LaTeX.tmbundle svn list http://svn.textmate.org/trunk/Bundles/LaTeX.tmbundle
Neither of them exist.
Can someone tell me how to upgrade my LaTeX bundle. Thanks.

The problem is unlikely to be with the LaTeX bundle as it just calls pdflatex.
Try call pdflatex from your Terminal to see if this doesn’t give the same result, if it does, there is likely some command you can use to affect the margins when typesetting directly to PDF.
This is a reply to Allen Odgaard's response to the email below. I didn't get an email back from the textmate board so I'm having a hard time figuring out how to respond that message directly. I changed the default engine from "pdflatex" to "latex" in the Bundle preferences on purpose. If I use pdflatex the margins are correct, but I have other problems (no pstricks, can't include .eps graphics.) Regardless, I'd like to know how to upgrade to the latest LaTeX bundle just because I'd like to keep my installation current.

See section 5.7: http://manual.macromates.com/en/bundles, don't forget to checkout the Support directory as well!
I was able to checkout the LaTeX bundle with the following command:
svn co http://svn.textmate.org/trunk/Bundles/Latex.tmbundle
—Alex
I tried to check out http://svn.textmate.org/trunk/Bundles/Latex.tmbundleagain and this time it worked. I can do an svn list on this directory too. I have no idea why it didn't work last night.
I can see that latexmk.pl is under the directory that I just checked out. (Though I'm still curious where it was before.)
I switched back to having pdflatex be my default engine. I worked around the problem with pdflatex not being able to handle .eps images by converting them to .pdf as explained here: http://www.hamilton.ie/gavinmc/docs/pdflatex_images.html.
Everybody thanks for your help.

You can also use Oberdiek's epstopdf LaTeX package with
\usepackage{epstodf}
in the preamble of your document. It will convert .eps files to .pdf on the fly.
In Terminal type
texdoc --list epstopdf
and choose the pdf which has oberdiek in its path to read on the usage and options.

Because, according to your previous mail, you had used “proper” capitalization of LaTeX in the URL the first time. That doesn't work.
