TextMate works on a temporary file that Transmit created and knows 
nothing about the file on your server.

If you change the file on the server while it is open in TextMate, then 
it would fall upon Transmit to sync the changes when TextMate saves and 
triggers Transmit to upload the (temporary) file.

Are you btw aware of rmate? If you work a lot over ssh, then rmate is a 
great asset, and when rmate accepts changes from TextMate, it will 
preserve metadata :)
