Helm integer intended to be string value parsed with escape character "\u200"

I have this Secret resource yaml:

...
stringData:
  imageTag: {{ .Values.image.tag | quote }}

...

In the value file:

image:
  tag: "6597745"
...

When running the helm template command results to a generated yaml file with the value:

...
stringData:
  imageTag: "65977\u200b45"
...

Seems like a bug in helm. To get around this issue, I have to do this:

...
stringData:
  imageTag: "{{ .Values.image.Tag }}"

...

Is there a better solution? I am using helm version 2.15.2

Add the result of `helm version` to the question body. – Kamol Hasan Apr 06 '20 at 21:03
version is `2.15.2` – alltej Apr 06 '20 at 21:37
The issue is when I copy paste the tag value from Jenkins. Although the value are the same when doing a file compare but I think there are some hidden characters. – alltej Apr 07 '20 at 00:17
Yes, you're right. `\u200b` represents zero width space. Take a look here - https://stackoverflow.com/a/7077279/11032044 – Kamol Hasan Apr 07 '20 at 04:03
