I do this:
git checkout -b test origin/test
...
git pull
And it seems to work. It even announces that my test is tracking origin/test.

Yes that syntax works too (although I use origin/master since I am tracking
the main branch and not the remote "test" branch). Thank you very much.
The message announcing the tracked branch is a nice touch.

So, do I understand it right that there is still no canonical syntax to
check out local branch tracking a remote one of the same name, without
spelling out the branch name twice?
