For a centralized repo its recommended to use a webserver with an xml file like the one described here: http://www.qgisworkshop.org/html/workshop/repositories.html Then you just give QGIS the url to that xml file and it handles the detection of newer versions whenever the server gets updates. I'm not 100% sure but qgis might not check the version of current plugins until you open the updater tool. Maybe one of the devs can chime in if it's stored in a file somewhere, I guarantee it's not a registry item since thats not cross platform. List of plugins is in QGIS.conf (location varies by OS) with a true/false for activation but not the version of the plugins.
