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.
