Use the "Navigator" view rather than the "Package Explorer". You can
see all files in the Navigator more like the Windows Explorer folder
system.
However, why would you not want to add .project and .classpath to your
repository. Surely you want to keep a record of the external
dependencies etc for your projects so that when you "Check Out As
Project" you automatically have the project dependencies set up. If you
upgrade your Eclipse you'll have to check out the code again so why make
yourself have to set up those dependencies again?
If you have the situation where you have dependencies on separately
installed libraries (such as JDOM or whatever) then each developer
creates a CLASSPATH VARIABLE (via Eclipse Java Preferences) and THAT
gets includeded in the dependencies rather than hardcoding paths to jar
files which causes problems when different people may install packages
in different places.
Anyway. I hope it's useful information.
