How to include project output directory to commint?

        Hi,

        I try use updated Subclipse tool integrated to Eclipse 3.0.1 for working with SCM system Subversion.

        I want to have in repository not only source(s) (java src files (*.java), stored procedures src (*.sql) etc.), but also compiled classes - *.class files.

        On the repository side, you may imagine this structure:

/project/sources/cz/fonet/<class_src>
/project/classes/cz/fonet/<class_bin>

Ex.: class_src = foo.java; class_bin = foo.class

        I must instruct Eclipse where sources are stored and where is output dir. So I checkout project not as project automaticaly, but I use "Check Out as...", select Java project and define this directory on Preferences (Configure Defaults... -> Source and output folder = Folders; Default output folder =<project>/Output folder defined in Configure defaults).

        But the IDE hide the output directory - so I can´t see the project/classes directory. If I can (and I can!) store in repository the snapshot of relevant *.java and *.class file(s), I must commit using external tool because in Eclipse I can commit only changes on *.java file(s).

        I there any workaroud to solve this situation? Is it so bad idea may have in repository together source and binary snapshot of project and then use branching/copying to copy the "branch" classes to other ... - it´s the similar to situation when in one project I generate *.jar (library) which is used on other project(s)... - but only I don´t have one or more jar(s), I have many classes...

        Thank you for any response or idea(s).
