Affected Version: 2.5

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Push a change to refs/for/branch/TOPIC
2.Revert the change

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

The revert operation generates a new change. The new change should have the same topic as the parent change.

Instead, the new change has no topic. 

Please provide any additional information below.

Our patchset-created hook makes some automated review decisions based on the topic. When changes are created without a topic, the hook 'fails' the change automatically, requiring administrative intervention. Our current solution involves parsing the commit message of the revert change, which is not ideal.
