How do I exclude the sources jar in mvn deploy?

When I run \"mvn deploy:deploy\", maven deploys 4 jar files to my internal remote repository.

They are:

[module-name]-1.pom
[modu

As of version 2.2 of the maven-source-plugin you can skip source generation with a config option without having to put the plugin in a profile in your parent pom:

  
  
    org.apache.maven.plugins
    maven-source-plugin
    2.2.1
    
      true
