Command overview

- All right, let's do a quick review of the commands that we have seen. Dpkg is for managing deviant packages that have been installed. And apt is for installing packages from the repositories. Apt-mark is how you can protect the package against upgrades. Snap is working with a snapshot, a graphical utility for desktop applications. And add-apt-repository allows you to add repositories for use by APT. Ubuntu-drivers is giving an overview of which drivers you are using. And lspci -k is showing the devices on the PCI bus and the kernel drivers related to them. Lsmod is listing all the kernel modules and modinfo is showing properties of your kernel modules. And git finally is a nice command that allows you to clone Git repositories that others have created or do so much more.
