Explanation
The nbproject is a required folder by NetBeans, where it keeps its project settings.
The only neccessary project build files needed are the project.xml and project.properties.
In project.xml, line 5 is changed to reflect the accurate name of the user's project. An unmodified copy is kept in the template folder, and the working copy of the settings are duplicated in the internal nbproject folder.
In nbintellij.iml is the required file by IntelliJ.
