+
+
+### BREAKING CHANGES
+
+* **core:** Switching default of `emitDistinctChangesOnlyDefaultValue`
+which changes the default behavior and may cause some applications which
+rely on the incorrect behavior to fail.
+
+`emitDistinctChangesOnly` flag has also been deprecated and will be
+removed in a future major release.
+
+The previous implementation would fire changes `QueryList.changes.subscribe`
+whenever the `QueryList` was recomputed. This resulted in an artificially
+high number of change notifications, as it is possible that recomputing
+`QueryList` results in the same list. When the `QueryList` gets recomputed
+is an implementation detail, and it should not be the thing that determines
+how often change event should fire.
+
+Unfortunately, fixing the behavior outright caused too many existing
+applications to fail. For this reason, Angular considers this fix a
+breaking fix and has introduced a flag in `@ContentChildren` and
+`@ViewChildren`, that controls the behavior.
+
+```
+export class QueryCompWithStrictChangeEmitParent {
+  @ContentChildren('foo', {
+    // This option is the new default with this change.
+    emitDistinctChangesOnly: true,
+  })
+  foos!: QueryList<any>;
+}
+```
+For backward compatibility before v12
+`emitDistinctChangesOnlyDefaultValue` was set to `false. This change
+changes the default to `true`.
