As long as people can email (or carry USB sticks with) files to each other, the only technical result of auch restriction-from-above is that the inofficial workflow won't be documented in the VCS.
Whhy anybody would want its mmany social ramifications, all of which detrimental, is beyond me, but then there's a reason why I'm not a manager. :-P

So you are using a centralized VC. You require some piece code from your collegue and he is not keen on committing it yet. He sends you an early version as a patch (by email or USB or else). You work on top of that. Great, but good luck committing anything. Meanwhile your collegue updates his patch. How do you merge his new stuff since he can only give his whole work from scratch? Etc.
Soon enough you give up this strange and doomed experiment of using a centralized tool in a decentralized fashion and you create a branch for the two of you.
