Yes, that's where I found many of the details.

So I suppose it is the programmer's task to define what goes into
a change set?
On what level do change sets work? Class, method, code line... ?

That sounds quite useful!

But which objects exactly are part of a project? Everything in
Smalltalk is an object, after all. If I open a System Browser in a
project and add a method to an existing class, does that class become
part of the project? Or just the method? Or neither?

My impression from browsing various sites is that nobody uses MVC
any more except for compatibility. Is that correct? In other words,
should I simply forget about MVC?
