I run git from the command line and it thinks the Emacs shell (M-x
shell) is not fully functional.
How can I run git commands in the shell without getting poor rendering
and warnings like this?

By default, a lot of git commands are piping their command outputs
into $PAGER and if $PAGER is not set then pipe into less(1).
Since "M-x shell" is a dumb terminal, the best you can do (if you want
to stick with M-x shell) is to set your pager to cat(1), but you'll
never get the same result than what "git log | less" offers whatever
the workaround.
You're probably better to use "M-x term" in this case.
