[TxMt] Re: Automated diff + export of personal mods from bundles?

[Tim Bates]

Thanks Jacob,
I should have said I’ve forked these bundles from github so as to be able to maintain my changes, use them on multiple machines etc.
So, I don’t have a set of over-rides from pristine.

The built-in bundles are stored in ~/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Managed/Bundles, if you make a change to one of those, it will store those changes as a diff (or rather the overrides) in ~/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Bundles. There’s also a directory called "Pristine Copy”, see section 5.2 here [1] for more information.
