Please go to Preferences → Software Update and ⌥-click the Check 
Now.

This should give you TextMate v2.0-rc.28 and mate v2.13.1-beta which 
does a bit of logging related to `mate` and TextMate’s “bring to 
front” code.

This is also in the release notes:

- - -

First run `mate --version` to ensure that TextMate auto-updated it to 
`2.13.1-beta` (if not, go to Preferences → Terminal and 
uninstall/install it).

When the problem occurs, immediately run `date` in your terminal to get 
a timestamp to correlate with the debug log.

Then run this command to obtain the log:

     log show --predicate 'subsystem = "com.macromates.TextMate" && 
category = "BringToFront"'

See `man log` for options such as `--start date/time` (to limit the 
query to e.g. the last 10 minutes).

Follow up in this thread with the log with relevant information, such as 
whether or not you were using spaces and/or multiple screens at the 
time.
