Like I mentioned in my issue on GitHub (https://github.com/textmate/bugs/issues/21), certain files wont persist syntax settings.
I made a quick screencast, where you see that after changing the syntax, closing the file and opening that same file again, the syntax setting has reverted.
Even though the fileType is reported as text.html.erb.rails (see screenshot)
My Global.tmProperties:

And my .tm_properties in my home folder:

Open the file then use Bundle → Select Bundle Item… (⌃⌘T) and switch to settings (⌘}).
Now enter “filetype”, this should reveal what sort of file types are set for the current file.
When you change via status bar, it updates Global.tmProperties, but there could be local declarations which eclipse it.
That gives me just a single result, see attachment.

OK, I assume the file has a <html> or <!DOCTYPE> tag on first line?
As a workaround you can edit the HTML grammar’s firstLineMatch (just clear it), and I think your issue will be fixed, but I will make a workaround for this in upcoming build.

That's correct, and I can work around it by just not closing the file for now :)
Thanks!

Presumably related to this, was having similar issues. My custom settings for file types for different folders seemed to be the problem. I have the following:
[ "templates/{**/,}*" attr.untitled ] fileType = 'text.html.mustache'
[ "js/{**/,}*" attr.untitled ] fileType = 'source.js'
[ "scss/{**/,}*" attr.untitled ] fileType = 'source.scss'
[ "css/{**/,}*" attr.untitled ] fileType = 'source.css'
[ attr.untitled ] fileType = 'text.html.php.ko2'
Which I'm pretty sure was working at some point. But now the last option in the list is the one it uses for a new file, and it was also being used for any PHP files that I opened (so I re-ordered to make it last).

You need to either put a `.tm_properties` in each subfolder (templates, js, scss, and css) which has:
[ attr.untitled ] fileType = «file type»
Or if you don’t mind targeting *all* files in each subfolder, you can leave out the `attr.untitled`, e.g.:
[ templates/** ] fileType = 'text.html.mustache'
That said, it does seem like it would be nice to target both a file pattern and a scope selector, could possibly be done with `:` as separator, e.g.:
[ templates/**:attr.untitled ] fileType = 'text.html.mustache'
I will consider such extension for a future update.
P.S. The `{**,}/*` syntax is redundant and `**` should match the same (though this might not have been the case in earlier versions of TextMate’s file pattern matcher).
Okay, pretty sure it was working but perhaps each time I was editing and tested my .tm_properties it picked up the last one in the list as the new one and so I thought it was working when it probably wasn't.
FWIW:
[ templates/** ] fileType = 'text.html.mustache'
Only picks up for new files in subfolders. I have to do:
[ "templates{/**,}" ] fileType = 'text.html.mustache'
To make it work as desired. But yes, having the :attr.untitled syntax would be perfect for what I'm trying to achieve.

My bad. The problem here is that for untitled files, we match the file pattern against the folder, and while `**/` will matching “nothing” the `/**` pattern must have a literal slash followed by potential nothing.
I will change this so that we use the folder with a trailing slash in the match when there is no filename.
