Making a backup of the complete eclipse folder makes sense as it contains all the plug-ins which you have installed. Sometimes eclipse breaks because of a new plug-in or just any random problem. Then it's great to have a backup and you don't need to install every plug-in which you had before.

You don't need to backup these .svn folders. Besides of that, you don't really need to backup your working copies since you can always checkout them from the server again.
However, if your working copies are not large -- there is nothing against backing them up as all other data on your system.
