• Add final to field
• Remove explicit generic type for diamond
• Qualify field access with this
• Remove unused suppress warning annotation
• Remove final from private method

• "File > Settings > Plugins > Browse repositories... > Search 'Save Actions' > Category 'Code tools'"

Or the plugin is available from the Intellij IDEA Community Edition plugin repository and you can also download the jar from there then add it in Intellij IDEA:

• "File > Settings > Plugins > Install plugin from disk..."

The configurations are located in "File > Settings > Other Settings > Save Actions".

Name	Description
Activate save actions	Enable / disable the plugin
Organize imports	Enable / disable import organization (configured in "File > Settings > Code Style > Java > Imports")

Rearrange fields and methods	Enable / disable re-ordering of fields and methods (configured in "File > Settings > Code Style > Java > Arrangement")
Reformat only changed code	Enable / disable formatting for changed code only. If VCS is configured, it is used to check which lines where modified. If VCS is not configured, the code will always get reformatted

File path inclusions	Add / remove file path inclusions (by default, everything included). The Java regular expressions match the whole file name from the project root. Include only Java files: .*\.java.
File path exclusions	Add / remove file path exclusions to ignore files (overrides inclusions). The Java regular expressions match the whole file name from the project root.

Files location

• idea.log: The log file the save actions plugin writes in. It contains debug information, prefixed with com.dubreuia.SaveActionManager. If you are using default locations, it would be in ~/.IntelliJIdeaVERSION/system/log/idea.log.
• saveactions_settings.xml: The settings file is saved by project in the .idea folder. That file can be commited in git thus shared in your development team. If you are using the default locations, it would be in ~/IdeaProjects/PROJECT_NAME/.idea/saveactions_settings.xml
