Eclipse is messing up code with format

Take this piece of code: This is how eclipse would add the non-Javadoc with ALT+SHIFT+J

            /* (non-Javadoc)
             * @see javafx.util.StringConverter#fromString(java.lang.String)
             */
            @Override
            public Number fromString(String string) {

Try formatting this piece of code and it messes it up: CTRL+SHIFT+F

            /*
             * (non-Javadoc)
             * 
             * @see javafx.util.StringConverter#fromString(java.lang.String)
             */
            @Override
            public Number fromString(String string) {

How can I avoid this? The problem is you get unnecessary whitepace that messes up git diff.

You'd have to change Java Formatter preferences on the Comments tab; probably you don't want "Blank line before Javadoc tags" enabled.

That did work, but I only want that behaviour on comments with non-Javadoc.

It wouldn't be so bad I at least I could ommit the whitespace on the empty comment lines. There is no option to ommit these whitespace.
