The document discusses various Linux commands for archiving and compressing files including zip, unzip, gzip, gunzip, tar, cpio, and dd. It provides an overview of their common options and how to use them to create, extract, compress, decompress, backup, and restore archives and disk images. Incremental backups can be achieved with tar by creating a snapshot of the initial full backup.
