If TortoiseSVN and the command line do not see the file as changed, I
would think it would have to not be changed. That would certainly point
to this not being specifically a Subclipse issue.
Did you format as NTFS? Did you apply any kind of special authorities or
anything to the file system?
Subversion relies on things like the file size and modification stamp as a
short-cut for determining if the file has changed. Since it all works
when using an external editor, maybe the Eclipse editors are not updating
the modification time for some reason?
Have you tried refreshing your project in Eclipse?
