The --portable option is not very well documented in the wiki nor in the command line interface:

$ loaih build --help | grep -n2 portable
18-  -o, --offline-help           Include the offline help pages for the chosen
19-                               languages. Default: no offline help
20:  -p, --portable               Create a portable version of the AppImage or
21:                               not. Default: no portable
22-  -s, --sign                   Sign the build with your default GPG key.
23-                               Default: do not sign

The purpose of the --portable option is to create an AppImage which uses a specific profile folder instead of the default one:
~/.config/libreoffice/<major-ver>/user instead of ~/.config/libreoffice/4/user.

This tracks issue #160010 of TDF's bugzilla.
