Easiest way is to look online at the github repo

If you want to browse it locally, you can (depending on your version of rails) to a bundle show rails for Rails 3.0, this will tell you where it's installed.

For rails 2.3.x you just need to find out where the gem is installed and open that up. If you're using RVM for instance it will be somewhere in ~/.rvm
