How to version-control .project and .classpath under SVN [message #522493]

I teach a programming course, and am putting together a repository of Java source code at various stages of development.

The goal is to be able to download the course SW at any "tagged" history point, and have it compile and run.

The difficulty I am having right now: On the initial check-in of the base project, the .classpath and.project files were checked into the repository.

But I see in the Repository view that my "commits" are not having any effect on these 2 resources. So the source code is up to rev. 48, but the .project and .classpath are stuck on rev. 2.

When I "Team...Switch to Tag", the source is replaced, but it has tons of compile errors, which look like the 2 packages do not know each other exist.

Why aren't the Project and Classpath files being rolled fwd on my commits?? Will fixing this take care of the problem rolling back to a Tagged version?? Is Eclipse happy using a repository-supplied Project file?
