+* **upgrade:** Prevent property renaming for $inject. ([96d06f7](https://github.com/angular/angular/commit/96d06f7))
+
+
+### DEPRECATIONS
+
+* core: `KeyValueDifferFactory` and `IterableDifferFactory` no longer have `ChangeDetectorRef` as
+  a parameter. It was not used and has been there for historical reasons. If you call
+  `DifferFactory.create(...)` remove the `ChangeDetectorRef` argument. Introduced by ([#14311](https://github.com/angular/angular/pull/14311)).
+
+
+### BREAKING CHANGES
+
+* common: Classes that derive from `AsyncPipe` and override
+`transform()` might not compile correctly. The much more common use of `async` pipe in
+templates is unaffected. We expect no or little impact on apps from this change, file an issue if we break you. Introduced by ([#14367](https://github.com/angular/angular/issues/14367)) ([4da7925](https://github.com/angular/angular/commit/4da7925)).
+
+  * Mitigation: Update derived classes of `AsyncPipe` that override `transform()` to include the type parameter overloads.
