It means that your local copy will be updated without having to manually 
specify the repo. If this is "false", then "emerge --sync" or "emaint 
sync --auto" will *not* update the repo. You would need to explicitly do 
so with "emaint sync --repo gentoo".

This is "true" by default though. So that's why it works as usual for 
you even though you don't have that line in your repos.conf.
