[TxMt] using mate with svn

[Bryan Lockwood]

I've set SVN_EDITOR to mate in hopes of using it to compose my check- 
in messages. Everything
seems to work fine, I get a window in TextMate all set up with spiffy  
colored lines showing me the
files that changed, etc. When I'm done editing, I hit Cmd-S and Cmd-W,  
but in the shell window
of Terminal I see:

Log message unchanged or not specified
(a)bort, (c)ontinue, (e)dit:

What am I doing wrong?
