A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
1.public static <T> void copy(List<? super T> DEST, List<? extends T> SRC) {
2. int srcSize = src.size();
3. if (srcSize > dest.size())
4. throw new IndexOutOfBoundsException("Source does not fit in dest");

........

This method does not work if you want to copy list into empty (does not mean with capacity 0) DEST.
It's possible to create DEST list with any initial capacity, but if it's empty - method size() returns 0 which means if I want to copy my SRC list into empty DEST list - operation fails because line 3 is wrong srcSize will be > 0.
Please update javadoc which should say that DEST list must contains at least the same number of elements as SRC OR fix the implemenation !

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
List<Any_Object> dest = new ArrayList<>(100); // size 0
List<Any_Object> src= new ArrayList<>(); // size 0
src.add(new Any_Object()); // size 1

java.util.Collections.copy(dest, src); // fails

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
It must be possible to copy 1 list into another empty list.
ACTUAL -
It is not possible to copy 1 list into another empty list.

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
