Take a look at the GNU make manual (http://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_mono/make.html) and read section 5.2 "Command Execution". Note that it says "By default, the program `/bin/sh' is used." But do read the whole section for background.

I'm using a test makefile with a single goal:
all: @echo COMSPEC = $(COMSPEC) @echo MAKESHELL = $(MAKESHELL) @echo SHELL = $(SHELL)
When I have Visual Studio drive the makefile with
make -k -C $(InputDir)\.. all
I get
COMSPEC = /bin/bash MAKESHELL = /bin/bash SHELL = /bin/sh.exe
But when I tell Visual Studio to:
echo COMSPEC = $(COMSPEC) echo MAKESHELL = $(MAKESHELL) echo SHELL = $(SHELL)
I get
COMSPEC = /bin/bash MAKESHELL = /bin/bash SHELL = /bin/bash
which is the desired behavior -- mirroring the environment that I launched
Visual Studio in.
Why is make substituting in a default $SHELL?
