When I create a new Xcode project with the "command line tool" template, Xcode automatically adds a file with extension ".1" (e.g. Car.1 and main.m). What is the ".1" file?

It is the source file for the manpage of the new command line program, if you want to provide one. Normally you don't, so you can safely delete it.
