A bug of GitHub Pages?

I have a blog(http://hueidou.github.io/) on GitHub Pages which has a images directory named "images", works well before.

Then, I create a new Repository named "images" and create the gh-pages branch which public to http://hueidou.github.io/images/. It also works well self, but It makes the link of my blog images all broken, like http://hueidou.github.io/images/rss.png.

Then, I have delete the Repository named "images", but, the problem still.

How to resolve it?

GitHub Support had rebuild my site, here is the response.

Sorry for the trouble you're having. As you've discovered, naming a Project Page repository and a User Page subfolder with the same name will cause a conflict on our servers. It's best to not use the same names for those.

I've rebuilt your User Page site, so the images subdirectory should be working again.

Visiting the site right now, I can see your RSS image in the footer, so your link to http://hueidou.github.io/images/rss.png does work.

Here's proof:

rss

However, you're seeing the 404 at http://hueidou.github.io/images/ because that directory doesn't have an index file, which is expected behavior for directly hitting any directory without an index file on GitHub pages.
