`compile_commands.json` (e.g. as generated with `bear -- make`) contains the exact commands used for building the binary including compiler flags such as include paths and warnings. It is useful for LLVM based tools for code completion / linting / ... such as clangd, as they then find the headers included. There is little reason in tracking this file, as it can be generated from the `Makefile` with `bear`. `.cache` is a folder generated by `clangd` to speed up code completion, linting, etc.
