I'd like to put the entire eclipse IDE (indigo) under version control (for us that would be SVN) to allow developers to checkout the entire IDE ready to go with minimum environment configuration. Did anybody try this? Would this cause problems with actually USING SVN in eclipse? I could check it in and have users export it, but that would make it trickier to keep it updated.

I went with @BenjaminLinus approach, get an eclipse, add all the plugins, set up our app's environment specific stuff, zip it up and check it in.

You can... but why? It is just easier to have it in a shared drive for install. You don't need to track version of eclipse.
