Debian have done a huge amount of work in this area - https://wiki.debian.org/ReproducibleBuilds

Makes sense, given Chris Lamb, former Debian Project Leader, is heavily involved. https://reproducible-builds.org/who/

I believe the whole reproducible-builds.org project started at Debian [0], the Core Team is still all made of Debian Developers, more information at: https://reproducible-builds.org/

Their documentation has some really good pointers at common issues and how to solve them: https://reproducible-builds.org/docs/

And the diffoscope tool is very useful for debugging.

[0] I believe other projects had similar things going on but the Debian one became the main to serve as an umbrella.

Some more reproducible builds history (it has been around since at least the 1990s):
