Up to the user.  CC has a minimum wait between cvs mods, so that people 
have some amount of time to finish a checkin, and a minimum check wait 
time, so that you are not hitting the repository constantly.  The 
default is a five minute wait since the last modification, and an 
attempt every 30 sec.

Yep.  If you check in broken code, you get a snidemail telling you where 
the errors are.  To me, this is simple courtesy in a build system that 
has many users and contributors.

Up to you.  You tell it what target to execute, and that target is 
expected to do whatever it is that you want done every checkin.  In our 
case, it is a full build with a clean step and production of jar files.  
This takes about 7 minutes with our current code.
