How to edit the Joomla template header?
Question
Basically, I am just trying to slightly modify my Joomla template.
There is a line of code within the <head> of my template that is obviously grabbing things such as meta description, meta keywords and title tags.
Here is the code <jdoc:include type="head" />
I would like to know where this code is located since I would like my title tag above both my meta description and meta keywords .
Is this possible?

Try this,
Its not recommended editing core files.
You can find the meta and title section of the Joomla sites.
libraries\joomla\document\html\renderer\head.php
contains a function fetchHead()
Hope its helped...

You could copy the header.php to your template folder (name it head_renderer.php) and inside the index.php from your template reference the new header.php via:
require_once dirname( FILE ) . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . 'head_renderer.php'; // our modifized renderer for the Joomla header
then you do not fully "edit the core files". However its a hack and not a template overwrite. But via this approach you can update joomla and do not need to check if your changed header.php is changed.

You can read the header values with...
$doc = JFactory::getDocument();
$head_data = $doc->getHeadData();
...then set new values, or update the existing values with code like...
$head_data["metaTags"]["name"]["twitter:title"] = $head_data["title"];
...then write it back with...
$doc->setHeadData($head_data);
