There's a DEBUG1-level log message on successful archive_command
completion - that would give you a lot of other low-prio log
messages wich you probably don't care about.
I'd put a wrapper around your rsync (a short shell script
would be sufficient) in the lines of rsync ... && logger "done",
that way you'd get the information via syslog.
On the other hand, do you really need the details about each WAL
segment? Since 9.4 there's pg_stat_wal_archiver... You're really
making your job harder than it needs to be with that ancient
PostgreSQL...
