Description
I noticed if I ran xcodegen a few times, the results were deterministic and no changes showed up on a local diff.
However, if I run pod install afterwards, the results were sometimes different.
How would I avoid such changes so we have a project file that is deterministic?

Research direction
Reproduce the issue by running xcodegen repeatedly, then pod install, and compare the resulting project-file diffs. Trace the project-generation and pod-install entry points to identify the source of nondeterminism; done means repeated runs produce no changes to the project file.
