I am currently unable to push changes I've made to a project to GitHub because it keeps finding these massive (~300MB) files called "java_pid(random numbers).hprof". I have no idea where they're coming from. Google searches aren't coming up with anything helpful - everyone else is asking about how to use them, and with regard to Eclipse, and I'm using Android Studio, and I don't care what's in them, I just want them gone.
Please help!

When you're monitoring memory usage in the Memory Monitor included in Android Monitor you can, at the same time, dump a snapshot of the Java heap to an Android-specific Heap/CPU Profiling (HPROF) file. The HPROF Viewer displays classes, instances of each class, and a reference tree to help you track memory usage and find memory leaks. HPROF is a binary heap dump format originally supported by J2SE.
