I am using helm template library and somehow I am in a condition where my env.yaml file doe snot have any key for pod annotations and helm is setting annotation : null. Offcourse this is intended behavior.

my questions is will there be unintended behavior or error if I set annotation as null instead of setting as {}.

_deployment.yaml

{{- define "library-chart.deployment" -}}
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
  name: {{ include "library-chart.fullname" . }}
  annotations:
    {{- toYaml .Values.podAnnotations | nindent 4 }}
  creationTimestamp: null
  labels:
    {{- include "library-chart.labels" . | nindent 4 }}

Helm diff

 + apiVersion: apps/v1
 + kind: Deployment
 + metadata:
 +   name: xxxx
 +   annotations:
 +     null
