Files containing vendor as a string not displayed on Github Pages

Question

I recently released my application to Github Pages, but i started getting 404 responses for files containing the string vendor.

Is there a reserved filenames list?

I have vendor.bundle.js in my gh-pages branch here https://github.com/emartech/angular2-phonecat/tree/gh-pages .

But the response is 404 https://emartech.github.io/angular2-phonecat/vendor.bundle.js .

It seems consistent between different repositories.

Response from Github Support:

We recently updated to Jekyll v3.3, which ignores vendored files by default. If you're not using Jekyll for your Pages site, you can add a .nojekyll file to the root of your repository to disable Jekyll from building your site. Once you do that, your site should build with your vendored files without any problems.
