Orb Config Pack Doesn't Translate Over Strings

I’m having an issue where my Orbs config is the following in

src/jobs/run-update.yml

One of the parameters is this

            cms-updates-version:
                default: '5e92612'
                description: 'Version of Script to download'
                type: string

But when it is translated over with orb pack src it removes the quotes around it.

            cms-updates-version:
                default: 5e92612
                description: Version of CMS Updates Script Download
                type: string

When validating I then get an error

Having the same issue, and haven’t found a workaround. We tried this:

cms-updates-version:
    default: "'5e92612'"
    description: 'Version of Script to download'
    type: string

But then we end up wit this:

cms-updates-version:
    default: '''5e92612'''
    description: 'Version of Script to download'
    type: string

Have you found a way around this? Our value is part of a git commit id, so I guess we could create a new commit or make our value longer.
