This allows the commit command line tool to open a window as “native”.
We use distributed objects for talking to TextMate and getting a response. For the response, we release the connection in the next iteration of the event loop and then gracefully exit the program. Though it’s not clear if this is enough time for distributed objects to reply the client (if not, an exception is thrown in the client about “connection disappeared while waiting for a reply”).
There is currently no way to add a TextMate (1.x) license to the key chain, but those who used TextMate r9147 or earlier should have one stored already.
Previously we installed this from the Bundle Support bundle’s support path.
While the Bundle Support bundle is a requirement to work with TextMate, including mate in the resources section should ensure we always get the latest build and address issue 53.
