ngAnimate 1.4.1 causes rootScope digest/apply per element animated

[startswithaj]

ngAnimate inconjunction with ng-repeat causes a rootScope digest/apply per element animated.

This is the actual angular ng-repeat animation plunkr modified to demostrate the issue. You need to open inspector and view console log. Then type 'j' in the search field. When you filter down the elements and they animate you get a digest per animated row. Without the animation you get just the single digest or double digest for dirty checking.

No Animation - 2 digests happen on the rootscope level (for dirty checking)

Animation class on ng-repeat 8 digests happen - 1 rootscope digest per element animated

This is the easiest way to illustrate it. Is this desired behaviour? If its going to digest shouldnt it just digest the scope its in rather than do an $apply and bubble digests all the way up/down from the rootscope?

Line 915 in 071be60

$timeout(onAnimationExpired, maxDelayTime + CLOSING_TIME_BUFFER * maxDurationTime);

$timeout(onAnimationExpired, maxDelayTime + CLOSING_TIME_BUFFER * maxDurationTime);

This line is missing the third invokeApply parameter false.

$timeout(onAnimationExpired, maxDelayTime + CLOSING_TIME_BUFFER * maxDurationTime, false);

The stagger code @

angular.js/src/ngAnimate/animateCss.js

Line 915 in 071be60

$timeout(onAnimationExpired, maxDelayTime + CLOSING_TIME_BUFFER * maxDurationTime);

Does apply the this third parameter and does not cause multiple $applys.
