If he can set up an SSH server on his machine (outside the company network), then he can set up a mirror repo on his machine, where you can push changes from the office to him, and pull changes from him back into the office. Of course, you will probably need to synchronize this with him, especially if he's travelling and frequently offline or changing IP addresses. Also you need to be able to make outbound SSH connections through the company firewall, but AFAICS that is usually allowed. His work repo is then a local clone of the mirror repo, and when he's ready to publish some work to you, he pushes it to the mirror repo, and asks you to pull from the mirror repo. If the source code is not secret, you could even synchronize through GitHub or some other repo hosting service, which would be even easier to set up.
