Actually, especially given that you're in a team, ideally you'd commit that
file... I believe that by committing that file, your problems would be solved
(when that file is updated, you shouldn't have to restart eclipse, as it should
understand that the file changed and act accordingly).

Note that the .project and .pydevproject files are meant to be checked in the
repository (otherwise, if you want to keep it local, then you really have to
keep updating things manually as you change things) -- the only thing is that
you shouldn't commit that file with absolute paths (always with string substitution
variables, which can be configured on a per-interpreter basis and relative
paths).

Cheers,
