It sounds like continuous deployment, not continuous delivery.
Continuous deployment deploys code to production frequently, as soon as it's ready.
Continuous delivery has some ready-to deliver branch that's constantly being updated as above, but they're not deployed to production until someone (Product Owner?) or something (Yay - end of sprint!) triggers it.
Different people may use the word release for at least this many things: 1) a deployment, 2) an unveiling via feature flags, 3) a public announcement despite the code already having been live.
