`_refresh_after_create` option isn't documented

[paduszyk]

Describe the issue

Baking a model with the post_save signal handler returns instance without the update by the handler (which in my case was populating some optional fields if not given).

By studying the codebase I found that the passing _refresh_after_create=True to baker.make fixes the problem.

Expected behavior

I think this functionality should be documented.

I did not find anything on https://model-bakery.readthedocs.io when using the search bar with "_refresh_after_create" query.

Alternatively, _refresh_after_create=True could be automatically set if the model is registered a sender of post_save. But this is the idea for another ticket, I guess.

Versions

• Python: 3.13
• Django 4.1.
• Model Bakery 1.20.0

Greetings @paduszyk !
Thank you for this good catch! We indeed did not document this.

I did create a PR addressing this: #514

I'd be happy to get your review on it; otherwise I'll merge and release this next week with several other updates.
