I want to sibmit my eclipse workspace into a CVS. Unfortunately the
".metadata" folder where eclipse stores its information is quite big,
could this be saved in one file, maybe .eclipse-data?

Hello there.
Why not just tar it up (with maximal compression by using bzip2) like so:
tar -cjf tmp/eclipseWorkspace workspace/.metadata/
and then put the archive into CVS instead of the folder?
On my machine this takes it down from 34MB to just under 8MB.

Hello again.
Of course, it's possible that what you _really_ want to do is to have CVS manage
your project(s) for you: proper commits, checkouts, diffing and all that good
stuff. If so, then to get a project into CVS do this:
Go to the Navigator view (left hand side of the workbench unless you've moved
it);
right click on the project and select team->share then follow the wizard.
I'm not sure why Eclipse refers to 'share' when it really means 'get this pig
into CVS' :)
I can only assume that the Eclipse developers forgot that people coding alone
also use CVS...

At least the terminology left the possibility for other versioning
systems open (Subclipse)...

Well, that is your decision. But it is often useful to use Eclipse for
it, for example it automatically ignores .class files in a Java project,
and all auxiliary files in a TeXlipse (a TeX plugin) project.

No. It still assumes you check in from the same workspace again. You
can choose to checkin the .project and other project related metadate
though.
