How to build sub-module without parent pom?
Sometimes a project has many sub-modules and each of them may have
sub-sub-modules. I don't want to get all the source codes. How can I work on
a sub-module without its parent pom file?

You can simply mvn deploy. You never want mvn deploy:deploy...this makes
me think you have the plugin:goal and lifecycle phases confused. You
should look at the initial chapters of http://www.sonatype.com/book to
get a better picture.

I can install the parent module into local repository. but how to deploy
it
to remote repository? The parent module is packaging of pom. So when I
run
mvn deploy:deploy I will get this error: The packaging for this project
did
not assign a file to the build artifact.

If the parent in installed in your local repository of if it is in one
of the remote repositories you have configured in your settings.xml,
then you can simply check the module out and build it, the parent pom
will be retrieved for you like any other dependency.

Do you mean I should add the parent in the sub-module's dependency?

The parent pom just needs to be in a repository that can be seen when
you are building the sub-module.
So if the sub-module is referencing a "released" parent pom, there
should be no problem. The released pom will be in a repository.
If the sub-module is referencing a "snapshot" version of a parent pom,
then someone needs to set up a snapshot repository somewhere, and deploy
that parent pom into the snapshot repository. Then when building the
sub-module, you just need to have that snapshot repository defined,
either by having it in the pom.xml for the sub-module, or by adding it
to your personal ~/.m2/settings.xml file. Of course you won't see any
changes that people make to that parent pom until they deploy the
modified version to the snapshot repository again.
