Actually the phrase is "tide you over" and the origin I'm not sure of. For instance if someone came asking for a certain amount of money, I might respond, How much can you get by with. If the respondant state a lesser amount in order to make it till a later date, then I would give the person the lesser amount just to "tide them Over" or help them until something else came along to help them. Hope this helps
