This is not a bug.  The name of the topic is literally "(detached" without a closing bracket.

No i know it is the name of topic which could be anything but it is not the case which is set by user  in this case.

it is by default set to "(detached" which is inappropriate

Let me give you an example:
1.) https://review.openstack.org/#/c/200873/

2.) use this command as it is from the checkout box:
git fetch https://review.openstack.org/openstack/swift refs/changes/73/200873/1 && git checkout FETCH_HEAD

3) upload change using : git review -v

Then the topic name uploaded is "(detached" which should be "detached".

So, i am reopening this bug for more investigation. Please close this if you think it is no longer relevant.

The topic is not being set by Gerrit.  It is being set by the git-review tool when it pushes the change.

This behaviour seems to have been fixed in git-review with [1] which is included since version 1.24.  Please check which version of git-review you are using.  If it still doesn't work as expected, please raise it with the maintainers of git-review.
