:w! Forces write even if the file exists, eg is chmod -r read-only.
:q! quits even if the buffer isn't saved.
:wq! Forces write and quits anyway.
It can't always work,you have to own the file and have the correct permissions for the directory. Sudo root it overrides the file/dir chmod mask constraints. It can't write over chflags locked files.
