@RadOctocode Thanks for your contribution, but some work remains to be considered.
Simply removing that character isn't enough. The code in other parts of the chart must also be changed.
Furthermore, the chart needs a version bump.

@RadOctocode Eventually, can you link me to some documents explaining the rationale behind this change and the technical reasons for this best practice?

Hi Pierluigi, sorry about the wait. I'm happy to make the changes to the other files and bumping the version to remove the v from the helm chart. As far as the reasoning for removing the implicit v from the helm chart, many companies host their images in private docker repositories that have rules. As part of a financial institution one of those rules for our private registry is that image semver flags are not prefixed with a v.

Hey @pierluigilenoci I removed the stripping of v from the helper function as well, please let me know if there is anything else I should do.

@RadOctocode, the chart needs a version bump.

@pierluigilenoci I bumped the chart up by one minor version, let me know if I should change this to be a patch bump instead or if I should add something to artifacthub.io/changes

@RadOctocode, could you please also edit the annotation for ArtifactHub?
