+
+
+### BREAKING CHANGES
+
+* Minified UMD bundles are no longer included in the distributed NPM packages.
+* **animations:** DOM elements are now correctly removed when the root view is removed.
+If you are using SSR and use the app's HTML for rendering, you will need
+to ensure that you save the HTML to a variable before destorying the
+app.
+It is also possible that tests could be accidentally relying on the old behavior by
+trying to find an element that was not removed in a previous test. If
+this is the case, the failing tests should be updated to ensure they
+have proper setup code which initializes elements they rely on.
+* **common:** Methods of the `PlatformLocation` class, namely `onPopState` and `onHashChange`,
+used to return `void`. Now those methods return functions that can be called
+to remove event handlers.
+* **common:** The methods of the `HttpParams` class now accept `string | number | boolean`
+instead of `string` for the value of a parameter.
+If you extended this class in your application,
+you'll have to update the signatures of your methods to reflect these changes.
+* **compiler-cli:** Linked libraries no longer generate legacy i18n message ids. Any downstream
+application that provides translations for these messages, will need to
+migrate their message ids using the `localize-migrate` command line tool.
+* **core:** Angular no longer maintains support for node v10
+* **core:** Previously the `ng.getDirectives` function threw an error in case a
+given DOM node had no Angular context associated with it (for example
+if a function was called for a DOM element outside of an Angular app).
+This behavior was inconsistent with other debugging utilities under `ng`
+namespace, which handled this situation without raising an exception.
+Now calling the `ng.getDirectives` function for such DOM nodes would
+result in an empty array returned from that function.
+* **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`.
+* **core:** The type of the `APP_INITIALIZER` token has been changed to more accurately
+reflect the types of return values that are handled by Angular. Previously,
+each initializer callback was typed to return `any`, this is now
+`Promise<unknown> | Observable<unknown> | void`. In the unlikely event that
+your application uses the `Injector.get` or `TestBed.inject` API to inject
+the `APP_INITIALIZER` token, you may need to update the code to account for
+the stricter type.
+
+Additionally, TypeScript may report the TS2742 error if the `APP_INITIALIZER`
+token is used in an expression of which its inferred type has to be emitted
+into a .d.ts file. To workaround this, an explicit type annotation is needed,
+which would typically be `Provider` or `Provider[]`.
+* **core:** Minimum supported `zone.js` version is `0.11.4`
+* **forms:** The `emitEvent` option was added to the following `FormArray` and `FormGroup` methods:
+
+* FormGroup.addControl
+* FormGroup.removeControl
+* FormGroup.setControl
+* FormArray.push
+* FormArray.insert
+* FormArray.removeAt
+* FormArray.setControl
+* FormArray.clear
+
+If your app has custom classes that extend `FormArray` or `FormGroup` classes and override the
+above-mentioned methods, you may need to update your implementation to take the new options into
+account and make sure that overrides are compatible from a types perspective.
+* **forms:** Previously `min` and `max` attributes defined on the `<input type="number">`
+were ignored by Forms module. Now presence of these attributes would
+trigger min/max validation logic (in case `formControl`, `formControlName`
+or `ngModel` directives are also present on a given input) and
+corresponding form control status would reflect that.
+* **platform-browser:** `XhrFactory` has been moved from `@angular/common/http` to `@angular/common`.
+
+**Before**
+```ts
+import {XhrFactory} from '@angular/common/http';
+```
+
+**After**
+```ts
+import {XhrFactory} from '@angular/common';
+```
+
+* **router:** Strict null checks will report on fragment potentially being null.
+Migration path: add null check.
+* **router:** The type of the `RouterLinkActive.routerLinkActiveOptions` input was
+expanded to allow more fine-tuned control. Code that previously read
+this property may need to be updated to account for the new type.

-### BREAKING CHANGES
-
-* Minified UMD bundles are no longer included in the distributed NPM packages.
-* **core:** Angular no longer maintains support for node v10
-* **core:** Previously the `ng.getDirectives` function threw an error in case a
-given DOM node had no Angular context associated with it (for example
-if a function was called for a DOM element outside of an Angular app).
-This behavior was inconsistent with other debugging utilities under `ng`
-namespace, which handled this situation without raising an exception.
-Now calling the `ng.getDirectives` function for such DOM nodes would
-result in an empty array returned from that function.

-
-
-### 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`.

-
-### BREAKING CHANGES
-
-* **common:** Methods of the `PlatformLocation` class, namely `onPopState` and `onHashChange`,
-used to return `void`. Now those methods return functions that can be called
-to remove event handlers.
-* **core:** The type of the `APP_INITIALIZER` token has been changed to more accurately
-reflect the types of return values that are handled by Angular. Previously,
-each initializer callback was typed to return `any`, this is now
-`Promise<unknown> | Observable<unknown> | void`. In the unlikely event that
-your application uses the `Injector.get` or `TestBed.inject` API to inject
-the `APP_INITIALIZER` token, you may need to update the code to account for
-the stricter type.
-
-Additionally, TypeScript may report the TS2742 error if the `APP_INITIALIZER`
-token is used in an expression of which its inferred type has to be emitted
-into a .d.ts file. To workaround this, an explicit type annotation is needed,
-which would typically be `Provider` or `Provider[]`.

-### BREAKING CHANGES
-
-* **forms:** Previously `min` and `max` attributes defined on the `<input type="number">`
-were ignored by Forms module. Now presence of these attributes would
-trigger min/max validation logic (in case `formControl`, `formControlName`
-or `ngModel` directives are also present on a given input) and
-corresponding form control status would reflect that.
