What's a good source control repository that meets these conditions?

  • Free
  • Direct integration with Visual Studio, as VSS/TFS do
  • Server-based
  • Supports multiple applications
  • Supports branching & merging
  • Has a license suitable for one user

SourceGear Vault does all those things and is free for a single user.

There are a couple of SVN plugins for Visual Studio.

I am aware of the free AnkhSVN (which I have used before) and non-free VisualSVN.

+1, Ankh works great and is free. I honestly don't know why anyone would ever pay for version control.

@kevin: People pay for source control because there are several commercial (paid) apps that do a much better job than what's freely available. Of course, it all depends on the requirements of your codebase and development process.

I looked into it and apparently the server-based version requires money?

A: 

I'm a fan of project-locker. They recentlly opened a free subversion hosting.

I'm very happy with their service, and their support. I have the paied version, but I recommend you give them a try.
