I assume you mean g# minor with the same accidentals in the key 
signature as b major. The lead tone to gis (g sharp) is fisis (f 
double-sharp) and not g (natural).

Take a look at the following example:

cmaj = { c' d' e' f' g' a' b' }

ahmin = { a' b' c'' d'' e'' f'' gis'' }

\score {
  <<
    \new Staff {
      \key c \major
      \cmaj
    }
     \new Staff {
      \key a \minor
      \ahmin
    }
    \new Staff {
      \key b \major
      \transpose c b, { \cmaj }
    }
     \new Staff {
      \key gis \minor
      \transpose a gis { \ahmin }
    }
  >>
}
