Issues with running backup log with no_log or truncate_only
On my database server I have my databases set to the full recovery model, but the transaction logs get quite big, so I am issuing a BACKUP LOG with NO_LOG.

One of the more obscure requirements that a developer may find themselves facing is the need to compare a row with its immediate sibling.

For example, values lying along a time line. The solution is actually quite simple, but not immediately obvious.
