+
+    The ``enabled_locales`` option was introduced in Symfony 5.1.
+
+Symfony applications generate by default the translation files for validation
+and security messages in all locales. If your application only uses some
+locales, use this option to restrict the files generated by Symfony and improve
+performance a bit:
