Django ModelForm: how to override or check "save_as"

I need to add some settings for the case when the instance in Django Admin is a "saved_as" copy. Can I do this in save(), if so, how can I check save_as kwarg? Or is there a method save_as()that I can override somewhere. I could not find any information about the differences in the process between regular save()and one with save_as = True.

Can someone give me an example or give me a hint where to go?

Thanks so much for your time!

:)
