I think sharps are generally for minor keys, and flats for majors. For example, you might say D♭ major for something, but if you go to a minor key, it makes more sense to write it as C♯ minor, since it's the relative minor of E Major (four sharps). Same thing for G♭ major -> F♯ minor (the relative minor of A major).
