Yes, "Advanced search" is great.

Probably not without renaming the files to include titles, which obviously isn't practical.

Google Docs can do versioning but it's clunky.
Git can handle binaries but "git diff" won't show you much for non-text documents, only that a file has changed:
$ git diff diff --git a/foobar.pdf b/foobar.pdf index f5d671a..82ac402 100644 Binary files a/foobar.pdf and b/foobar.pdf differ
Conceivably a web site like GitHub could hook into the "diff" part to display something more useful, but a common alternative is to write your documents in MarkDown (which is basically just plain text with benefits). Then you only export to HTML/PDF when you need to. I use Pandoc for that.
Obviously Markdown is not going to work for spreadsheets or graphics. Though I'm not sure how you'd represent "diff" of a spreadsheet or a graphics file anyway. :)
