------------------------------------

             Summary: Support reproducible builds
                 Key: MNG-6276
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6276
             Project: Maven
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: core, General
            Reporter: Paolo Sacconier


A venerable build system like maven should support full build reproduibilty 
(i.e. producing bit a bit identical binaries from the same source).

As initiatives like https://reproducible-builds.org gain traction and the news 
of the recent Debian policy change to mandate this build behavior (see 
https://reproducible.alioth.debian.org/blog/posts/121/), this seems a feature 
that needs to be considered for inclusion into maven core.

There is an indipendent ongoing effort to support this feature and the author 
stated that he has found interest from maven project to integrate his work: 
https://github.com/Zlika/reproducible-build-maven-plugin/issues/6#issuecomment-325005883

I hope this issue helps kickstart the effort.
