Your question is not very clear. Do you mean that you have just a local
directory of RPMS or that you maintain a local repo? If just a
directory then you may want to read:
http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/CreateLocalRepos
http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/CreateLocalMirror
In either case, it you want to see what updates are available from a
particular repo, say "reponame":
yum --disablerepo \* --enablerepo reponame check-update
You could then download and put RPMS in your local repo as desired.
