When importing transactions, what happens to non-identical data in the description and notes fields?

In my experience it depends on which method you use.  I usually use the OFX
import and if I choose update the new text replaces the existing so I often
either choose match which keeps the existing text or add to keep.the
existing transaction intact so I can manually merge text later.

I import transactions in QIF, GFX and CSV formats to GC 2.6.16.  When I
import transactions, GC proposes to match some of the imported transactions
with transactions in my file.  GC highlights these transactions in green.
These transactions do not have identical data in the date, description, and
notes fields.  What happens to the non-identical data in the description
and notes fields?  Which date survives the match.
