There's nothing that would currently achieve this.

Can you use the "first-child" CSS pseudo-selector?
It's supported in IE7+ and every other browser.

Currently, the output of a Repeatable isn't wrapped in a containing
div, but I don't think it would break anything to change that.
Then you could do:

    .repeatable div:first-child { }

Any help?

I'd be a little worried that if a first_rep_attributes() were added,
there'd soon be calls for:
    last_rep_attributes(),
    odd_rep_attributes(),
    even_rep_attributes()...
And where would it stop? ;)
