This discrepancy is actually what led to my question. Why does
LilyPond notate it one way, while this image shows another? (My
research has shown at the image you provided was custom made in
MuseScore.)
Although G♯ major is enharmonic to A♭, there are still pieces
that use these "theoretical" key signatures (one brass quintet
piece is actually in F♭), and I'm wondering if there's an official
source that determines how they are to be notated.

Hello,
list,
how does LilyPond create the key signature for Gis major?
I've attached a file to compile the key signature, which results
in: C#, G#, D#, A#, E#, B#, and Fx. It is interesting to me that
the key signature begins with C#, and the Fx is placed at the
end.
I'm wondering if there's a resource the developers used (perhaps
a notation manual) that gave a rule for how key signatures with
double accidentals should be formatted.
Hi,
What about this Wikipedia image showing the key signature order of
sharps + double?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G-sharp_major#/media/File:G-sharp-major_e-sharp-minor.png
...it looks like the double sharp is in the right spot, but even
still, could you just use the more common - enharmonic key of A♭
major instead?
