Personally, I like the idea of an integration repository. The main reason is that it avoids duplicate work and shifting blame for broken software, particularly if you have a test suite.

My workflow is "develop, test, check-in, pull-and-merge, test-if-merged, push". That tends to yield a saner change history, and requires less work, than doing it for every co-worker.
