FYI the issue should be fixed in v2.0-beta.12.30 available by holding 
option when selecting Check for Updates in the TextMate menu.

The issue should only have affect the nightly builds, will likely push a 
new nightly build in ~12 hours.

As for renaming ancestor folders of open files, there are currently two 
known issues related to this, one is that TextMate does _not_ update the 
path of any open documents, so the open documents will effectively 
become orphans, the other issue is that each open document caches the 
inode read when opening the document, and when opening another document, 
if the inode of the other document is the same as an already open 
document, it will use the already open document (we do not compare the 
path since that would fail when using links). After “removing” a 
parent folder of a document, any open document in this folder does not 
have its cached inode cleared (since it does not detect the parent is 
gone until the user tries to save), which does lead to a situation where 
a document effectively has the wrong inode.

I am not sure if this fully explains the behavior you saw, but 
definitely renaming ancestor folders of open documents is currently 
something that should be avoided.
