Is R.java file generated by Android SDK on each compile or only when new resources are added using Eclipse? Do I need to put it under version control or not?

    The R.java file is generated during resource compilation by aapt tool. You shouldn’t add it to source control system.

    Also, you should have noted the gen folder where R.java is placed. Your version control system should ignore this folder altogether, not only R.java file inside it. Because this folder is deleted on clean build (not sure about eclipse, but ant script definitely deletes it).
