We have a Responsive HTML5 project. When we generate the output and check-in the files in the respository there are a lot of unknown files that are generated with the output for example here are a few:
Responsive HTML5/whxdata/searchAuto_Model_11.js
/Responsive HTML5/whxdata/searchAuto_Model_12.js
Responsive HTML5/whxdata/searchAuto_Model_13.js
/Responsive HTML5/whxdata/searchAuto_Model_2.js
Responsive HTML5/whxdata/searchAuto_Model_3.js
Responsive HTML5/whxdata/package_55_xml.js
Responsive HTML5/whxdata/package_56_xml.js
Responsive HTML5/whxdata/package_57_xml.js
Responsive HTML5/whxdata/package_58_xml.js
Responsive HTML5/whxdata/package_59_xml.js
Responsive HTML5/whxdata/package_5_xml.js
Responsive HTML5/whxdata/package_60_xml.js
Any idea is this normal? What are these files and why do they get generated even when content changes are minimal.

Essentially these are the files that provide what users see and do beyond just your topics. They provide the TOC, the index, the toolbar and so on.
Adding a single word means the search has to be updated. That information gets spread around different files and it may mean redistributing the information.
It's normal.
