Eclipse format or clean up changed files

In Intellij Idea I can open Local Changes tab select files and invoke formatting code. How i can do this in Eclipse?

How can I format and clean up ONLY changed files in Eclipse?

I can get list of changed files on "Git Staging" view, but select files on this view don't allow me to invoke Source/Clean Up... or Source/Format operation.
