I can add some more info to the docs if anybody feels they are required, but I 
think they are sufficient. It already mentions that it copies file contents and 
that the correct permissions are required.

This is mentioned in the docs for shutil.copyfile:

The destination location must be writable; otherwise, an OSError exception will 
be raised. If dst already exists, it will be replaced.
