[angularjs] Compare objects in Angular

I know it's kinda late answer but I just lost about half an hour debugging cause of this, It might save someone some time.

BE MINDFUL, If you use angular.equals() on objects that have property obj.$something (property name starts with $) those properties will get ignored in comparison.

Example:

var obj1 = {
  $key0: "A",
  key1: "value1",
  key2: "value2",
  key3: {a: "aa", b: "bb"}
}

var obj2 = {
  $key0: "B"
  key2: "value2",
  key1: "value1",
  key3: {a: "aa", b: "bb"}
}

angular.equals(obj1, obj2) //<--- would return TRUE (despite it's not true)
