Just in case this is an argument to make the option enabled by default, I am not going to do it because of my original qualms and BetterRed's point.
If it is really a question: knowing in advance requires reading through CC's settings, reading
CC's description (the third bullet point under the second spoiler), or noticing the FAQ "
How can I get books to autosync when Calibre Companion connects?" One can know after a sync by watching the progress dialogs (all say "metadata"), looking at calibre's job log (only mentions sending metadata), seeing that the book did not change (which is how you noticed), or seeing that the book's mod date did not change (in a file manager).
