If I add a new repository, I have to run apt-get update before I can install packages from that source, of course. But it takes a few minutes for that to complete.

Is there an easy way to do something like tell it to only update sources that haven't been updated, say, today? Or in the past few minutes or something?

You can use the Y-PPA-Manager, then you do not need to use sudo apt-get update.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/y-ppa-manager
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install y-ppa-manager

  1. via command-line with, eg:

    sudo update-ppa ppa:webupd8team/y-ppa-manager

  2. via GUI:
