Ah interesting. I can sort of fix this, but only by just exiting more  
gracefully. It means it did not find any appropriate citations. So if  
you really expected a citation, then there is something else wrong  
with your setup. Is this a single file, project or what?

Assuming you have your svn checkout at /Library/Application Support/ 
TextMate. Go to the terminal:

First of all, let's see what you have:
cd /Library/Application Support/TextMate
ls

You should see at least the directories: Bundles, PlugIns and  
Support. If PlugIns or Support are not there, then you need to get  
them from the repository via (for example if PlugIns is the one  
missing):
svn co http://macromates.com/svn/Bundles/trunk/PlugIns

Then to update all these you can do:
svn up Support PlugIns Bundles/*

It is a extremely user-unfriendly. Typically, just having the regular  
TM download is all you would have to do. This is true in this case as  
well: If you remove all the bundles and things you've gotten through  
svn, then this should just work out of the box. That's what the  
official TM releases are for.
However, the bundles are updated almost daily, and if you want to  
keep up with that instead of waiting for the next release, then there  
are some problems associated with it. It's ugly, but that's how it  
is. It is typically not too hard to update, but the problem is with  
the new tm_dialog plugin, that requires changes in 15 different  
places. Once we stop updating that, things should become easier.
