How do I reveal hidden folders on Mac?

Press Command + Shift + . (period) to make the hidden files appear. You can also do the same from inside the Documents, Applications, and Desktop folders. Anything your computer doesn't want you messing with will be grayed out, but you can still take a peek inside.

Where are sublime files stored Mac?

Depending on your operating system, this directory is located in: Windows: %APPDATA%\Sublime Text. Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text.

Do you mean in the sidebar? If so, you need to modify the folder_exclude_patterns setting. The default value for this is "folder_exclude_patterns": [".svn", ".git", ".hg", "CVS"]. In your case, you would want to make it "folder_exclude_patterns": [".svn", ".hg", "CVS"] You can access user settings by going to Preferences -> Settings - User. Note that this will be applied across all of your projects. If you only want it for a particular project, you can create project specific settings. http://www.sublimetext.com/docs/2/projects.html

Press "Command" + "Shift" + "." (dot) to show hidden files in the Mac OSX file chooser dialog.
