Here are a few things to check:

1) Right-click on files and choose the Eclipse Properties option.
There is a Resource page. Make sure the "Derived" check box is not
checked.

2) Open Eclipse preferences to Team > Ignored Resources. Make sure
the file extension is not included.

3) The Subversion config file also lets you enter patterns of ignored
resources. The default settings do not include anything that would do
this, so you would have had to have edited this file yourself.
