You need to specify, what "identical" means for you. Keep in mind, that 
two files will likely differ in the meta data, in case they are handled 
by LibreOffice. Only copy using your operating system keeps the meta 
data. For finding such duplicates, I would look for a tool at level of OS.

To get a content comparison you can open one file and then use menu Edit 
> Track Changes > Compare documents. It changes the opened document so, 
that it equals the one, that you have chosen for comparison. The changes 
are visible in the "Manage Changes" dialog. You can see what is 
different. If the dialog is empty, the two documents are identical in 
content. Do not worry about "changes the opened document". You need only 
close it without saving to keep the original content.

Which problem do you want to solve with such a tool?

Kind regards
Regina
