Then you can have a feature branch like 'Joes_current', or something similar which you and only you push/pull from. Whenever you're done with it, you can merge the changes back into whatever you & your group see as the real branch. That is the model I use at work, and it works fairly well, and its saved me once already when the laptop I was working on decided to die on me.
