Yes, it's a bit out of date. The source file is 
gnucash-git/gnucash/gtkbuilder/dialog-preferences.glade and it's moved to 
build_dir/share/gnucash/gtkbuilder/dialog-preferences.glade by make/ninja and 
installed in $PREFIX/share/gnucash/gtkbuilder/dialog-preferences.glade.

On MacOS application preferences are written to plists in 
~/Library/Preferences. Ours is named org.gnucash.Gnucash.plist.
