That doesn't seem to work. Neither does explicitly setting :transaction? to false.
Looking at the source of execute!, it looks like the statement is running within a "with-open" on the java.sql.Connection, which is where a commit or rollback would occur. I presume that the with-open is closing the connection, which is resulting in a commit. Is there some way I can set autocommit to false on the connection through the db-spec? Unrelated to this, I had earlier been trying to use a DataSource provider that we have and wrap it with {:datasource ds}, which worked fine for executing queries, but db-set-rollback-only! would throw a NullPointerException (from reset!) if I created the data source that way. I dug around in the source code a bit more, but didn't see immediately what was going on - that being said, I'm not terribly familiar with how atoms work in Clojure. Thanks for your help!
