pg_basebackup has a status-interval option (called statusint in older
versions).  Have you tried setting that option...?

Also, seems like you'd really need to also be running pg_receivewal...
At some point the pg_basebackup will end and disconnect.  Or you could
run a replica instead of using pg_basebackup/pg_receivewal and then
take regular backups and archive your WAL with something like
pgbackrest.

Thanks!
