You can delete the sources. make sure you delete sources and not "teh
good stuff."

Another way to save space that is probably safer is '$ make clean' which
will clean up object files, and leave sources intact. You don't need two
sets of objects files if you don't want them.

'ls' is the list command. 'mv' is the move command.

Refer to the following man pages:
$ man ls
$ man mv
$ man hier
