Newbie questions: Changesets, changes and the image

Could someone tell me the proper way to produce a changeset (ie, suppose 
I'd been working on the image and I want to take some of the changes I 
made and bundle them into a changeset).

Here is a bunch of random changeset questions.
What is a change sorter?  What is a change?  can a mouse movement be a 
change?  What about a do-it?  When an object is created, is that a 
change?

Can the entire state of an image be defined in a changeset?  Which parts 
cannot be?

What are the different parts of an image state (eg, source code, live 
objects, Contexts, System Dictionaries, classes, proto-stuff)?  How 
does  each part behave (is source code made up of live objects?)?

Is there such a thing as data that is not executable?  Or is everything 
a method call?

Newbie minds want to know.  Thank you so much,
Derek
