Losing scope when using ng-include

I have this module routes:

var mainModule = angular.module('lpConnect', []).
    config(['$routeProvider', function ($routeProvider) {
    $routeProvider.
        when('/home', {template:'views/home.html', controller:HomeCtrl}).
        when('/admin', {template:'views/admin.html', controller:AdminCtrl}).
        otherwise({redirectTo:'/connect'});
}]);

Home HTML:

<div ng-include src="views.partial1"></div>

partial1 HTML:

<form ng-submit="addLine()">
    <input type="text" ng-model="lineText" size="30" placeholder="Type your message here">
</form>

HomeCtrl:

function HomeCtrl($scope, $location, $window, $http, Common) {
    ...
    $scope.views = {
        partial1:"views/partial1.html"
    };

    $scope.addLine = function () {
        $scope.chat.addLine($scope.lineText);
        $scope.lines.push({text:$scope.lineText});
        $scope.lineText = "";
    };
...
}

In the addLine function $scope.lineText is undefined, this can be resolved by adding ng-controller="HomeCtrl" to partial1.html, however it causes the controller to be called twice. What am I missing here?

This is because of ng-include which creates a new child scope, so $scope.lineText isn’t changed. I think that this refers to the current scope, so this.lineText should be set.
