The document summarizes 5 new features in AngularJS 1.2:
1) NgAnimate has been re-written and now uses CSS classes for animation instead of directives.
2) New ngFocus and ngBlur directives allow writing custom code and validation for focus and blur events.
3) The ngRepeat directive now includes $even and $odd properties for easier alternating row styling.
4) The ngTouch directive adds swipe events for building mobile apps.
5) jQuery is now locally referenced within the Angular app instead of globally.
