What does "Reset device" actually do?

Just wondering if there is a clear explanation of what the "Reset Device" functionality actually does.

Before I hack/play too much with the filesystem, I wanted to check if "Reset Device" just clears out the user data and settings, or if the entire filesystem is somehow restored?

My understanding is that the recovery image/partition is not currently used, so I don't think it resets the partition?
