Release Database Transaction Log Used Space After Database Backup

What are the SQL Server commands that will shrink or release database
transaction log used disk space afer the database backup has completed?
Thank You,These two things are not related. A database backup will not empty the log. A log backup will,
however. To then shrink the log file, use DBCC SHRINKFILE. But read
http://www.karaszi.com/SQLServer/info_dont_shrink.asp first.
