I have just started a new project in IntelliJ and created a new repository on github where I can get commit and push to.

I can see that every time I want to do some implementation I can also see these files under Changes. How can I remove these from the commit window? I just want to see the changes/implementation I make, not the other file what I will never upload anyway.

How can I remove/clean these?

You can use a .gitignore file.

This is what mine looks like: gitignore

If you right click on the app > git you can see an option to add a .gitignore file.

It seems that you have added these files to Git. You need to add git rm --cached <filename> first in order to remove these files from git.

Then you need to right-click on these files in Project view -> Git | Add to .gitignore
