Sorry, that fails (with "dummy" as second argument to FoldList) if the
first element of keepPrior is True.
You haven't specified what you want to do in that case, but maybe this
would do:
keepPrior = {True, False, True, False, True, False, False, True, True,
True, False, True};
counter = 0;
Rest@FoldList[(counter++;
If[#2, Append[#1, counter], {counter}]) &, {}, keepPrior]
{{1}, {2}, {2, 3}, {4}, {4, 5}, {6}, {7}, {7, 8}, {7, 8, 9}, {7, 8, 9,
10}, {11}, {11, 12}}
