Can I run the bundle open command inside of MacVim?

When I issue the bundle open command in the terminal, the "vi" editor comes up, but it doesn't seem to have all the defaults and settings I'm used to, and it looks fairly ugly as well. Is there a way to have bundle open start-up in MacVim outside the terminal, or can I issue bundle open in MacVim so it comes up there?

You can have bundle open send the file to MacVim for you. First, you need to make sure the mvim script that comes with MacVim is installed; instructions here.

Then, as @Randy Morris said in a comment, you need to set your EDITOR environment variable to mvim. You could add that to your .bash_profile file in your home directory to make it permanent; pretty much every Unix command that launches an editor will use it.
