gitgit-extensions

Are GIT Bash command "git remote prune origin" and Git-Extensions popup command "Fetch and prune" equal?


In my company, management is using GIT Bash while I am using Git-Extensions.

According to a procedure, I need to launch the GIT Bash command git remote prune origin.

In Git-Extensions, there is a popup, called "Fetch and prune", as you can see here: enter image description here

Can anybody confirm whether those two actions are the same? In case not, what are the differences?

Is there any way to know the link between any Git-Extensions command and its GIT Bash equivalent?
