Identity filter increments large integer values unexpectedly

[wdh]

Input:
$ echo '{"variantId":24092600057481699}' | jq '.'

Actual output:

{
  "variantId": 24092600057481700
}

Expected output:

{
  "variantId": 24092600057481699
}

Notes:

• The issue seems to be related to the size of the integer - it does not happen if the leading digit is removed.
• Expected output is based on man jq, which says it should be unchanged:

BASIC FILTERS
   Identity: .
       The absolute simplest filter is . . This is a filter that takes its input and produces it unchanged as output. That is, this is the identity operator.

Environment:

• MacOS Mojave 10.14.6 (18G4032)
• jq 1.6 (installed via Homebrew)

This is a frequently asked question (#545 #1652 #1959 #2109) and is already fixed in the master HEAD (implemented by #1752).

 % jq --version
jq-master-50a7022
 % echo '{"variantId":24092600057481699}' | jq '.'
{
  "variantId": 24092600057481699
}

Thanks for the info. Built from master per the README.md and confirm WFM:

$ ~/bin/jq --version
jq-1.6-124-gccc79e5-dirty
[wdh@bat ~]$ echo '{"variantId":24092600057481699}' | ~/bin/jq .
{
  "variantId": 24092600057481699
}
