Local Dev Branch These can be found on the Looker server. Inside the `looker` folder, you'll see several folders named `models-user-X`. These are each users' local dev files; X corresponds to their Looker user ID. Inside each of these folders is a folder for each project that that user has access to. The local dev versions of the files can be found in those project folders. Note: Looker-hosted customers don't have access to their Looker server.
Local Prod Branch These can be found on the Looker server. Inside the `looker` folder, you'll see a folder named `models`. Inside this folder is a folder for each project that exists in production. The local prod versions of the files can be found in those project folders. Note: Looker-hosted customers don't have access to their Looker server.
Remote Dev Branch These can be found on the remote git provider. For example, you can go to the Github repo, change your branch, and see a list of files. 

Remote Prod Branch These can be found on the remote git provider. For example, you can go to Github repo, change your branch to the production branch, and see a list of files.
