No, TextMate will preserve the original file’s metadata.

It will do an automatic ‘chmod a+x’ for certain file types (with 
shebang), via a bundle item, but that is the opposite of your issue.

That said, if you open the file in Transmit then Transmit will download 
it to a temporary and open that temporary file in TextMate. When 
TextMate saves, Transmit will upload the file, so the issue is more 
likely with Transmit not preserving the server’s file meta data.

I assume you did “touch” and “chmod u+x” on the server (via ssh 
or similar).
