What does Git GUI's "Match Tracking Branches" option do?

What does the "Match Tracking Branches" option do in Git GUI?

Match tracking branches option

I haven't seen any immediate change after enabling the option. I assume it keeps local branches up to date with a repository's tracking branches?

From git-config documentation. (Linked by Tieme)

Determines if new branches created with git-gui[1] should default to tracking remote branches with matching names or not. Default: "false".
