I often come across the phrases like these:

do make the change: e.g, "But do make the change I've posted, it is always good practice to use the variables names"

do care about this: e.g, "I really do care about you as one of my best friend."

So what is the main idea of using "DO" in such a way?

    It's very difficult to say without more context, because there are a number of ways the verb to do can be used. Can you provide more context?

In your examples, "do" is an intensifier. It emphasizes the verb.
