SHORT DESCRIPTION
     Copies the source file to the calling destination file. If the destination file exists and
    overwrite is false, then no changes are made. System.IO.FileInfo has a CopyTo method, but it
    returns the destination object. This performs the copy and updates the passed objects to avoid
    having to reassign/recreate them.
