See http://docs.oasis-open.org/cmis/CMIS/v1.0/cs01/cmis-spec-v1.0.html#_Toc243905471
It returns an array of ChangeEvents. How it is exactly implemented, may differ from framework to framework (I think).

From the specification what I understand is, if I update properties of a document then getContentChanges will list that document in log? and I can fetch which properties have been updated with what value? Please correct me if wrong.

What type of objects/nodes can be included in change log event? Folder? Document? Users? Business Rules? ???
Kindly explain in more detail please?

Thanks.

In the OpenCMIS implementation it recognizes all property changes of subtypes of cmisbject. The ChangeEvent contains an object id, the type of change (created, updated, deleted) and a list of properties, which are affected.

I hope it helps a little bit.
