Exact reproducibility is nice for two scenarios: 1) academic research, and 2) very large-scale applications and deployments. For regular people writing boring small web apps, choosing a stable base image and pinning dependencies is good enough.
Consider also that your preferred programming language will also very likely not provide particularly reproducible package builds.
This just means you don't.
Try using `sudo apt install git=1:2.39.2-1ubuntu1`
That pins it to a particular version so that it should be reproducible.
I've never looked seriously into it, but my feeling is that distros will delete old versions as newer ones are uploaded: When I run "apt-cache policy git" in my Ubuntu, I only see a couple versions available to install, often other packages show only a single one (so, the latest).
However, much in the same way that if you actually take your build system seriously you'll store your application dependencies in a local proxy, you can run a mirror or proxy to hold these historical packages too.
Take a look at something like apt cacher, however it is a proxy cache so you can reproduce builds using the exact same package versions but if upstream delete old packages, and you want to roll back to one you haven't previously downloaded, then you are out of luck.
