Adding column via sp_repladdcolumn...

I'm applying schema changes to a replicated database. One table has
approximately 3.5 million rows and I'm planning on adding a column to it
via sp_repladdcolumn.

Will it "re-initialize" that table to the subscriber? IE, will it copy
the entire table contents out to the subscribers with this change, or will
it automagically just add the new column?

It's a relatively slow link and I've got a limited time window to do this
upgrade, so any information will be appreciated.
